The three-storey building in question contains a commercial space and housing on the upper floors, according to reports.

A hundred firefighters headed to the scene in an attempt to control the aggressive flames, which were reported to have started at around 7:50 a.m. Friday morning.

At the time of writing, it is not known if the fire has been brought under control and the health status of the building’s residents is unknown. As for the cause of this fire, it remains unknown until now.

Some have fun playing with sharks on the edge of a beach, like this named Australian who pulled a shark by its tail!

The shark in question was about two meters long. It obviously became agitated, and as the water got deeper, the man crouched down, holding the shark’s dorsal fin, to avoid being hit.

Note that in Western Australia, where this scene took place, no less than 25 sharks were spotted, including a huge white shark of five meters!

On Thursday, Pentagon officials reported that a Chinese spy balloon had been floating in the north of the country for a few days, after a brief stint… in Canada!

A Pentagon spokesman said he was very confident that the ball in question belonged to the People’s Republic of China. For the last two days, the ball has been flying over specific locations to obtain information.

According to the Pentagon, the balloon was seen over Montana, where one of the three U.S. nuclear missile silos is located, at Malmstrom Air Force Base.

U.S. President Joe Biden wanted his military to shoot down the balloon, but his military leaders have strongly advised against doing anything that could endanger many civilians.

Patrick Ryder, the Pentagon spokesman, actually filed an update about the Chinese balloon.
