The main version of the fire in the MEGA Khimki shopping center is arson

“The main version of the fire is arson”, - the agency quoted the interlocutor as saying.

Earlier it was assumed that the cause of the fire could be a short circuit in a warehouse with wooden products.

Recall that the fire happened in the OBI store. Paint cans and aerosols located there began to explode in the building. The store was practically blown to pieces. Initially, there were no casualties, but the data is currently being specified. Now the fire is localized on the area of seven thousand square meters.

At the same time, the fire failed to reach other parts of the shopping center. On the other side of the building, where the central entrance and the Auchan store are located, there is no fire.
