Iranians mark anniversary of Plasco Building tragedy
Iranians this week marked the first anniversary of a tower blaze tragedy that left over 20 people killed - including firefighters - in downtown Tehran.
The 17-storey Plasco Building, an iconic commercial building at the heart of Iran's capital, collapsed on January 19, 2017, while firefighters were struggling to put out the blaze that was sparked by an electrical short circuit at the ninth floor.
It took several days for the firefighters to retrieve the bodies of the victims due to the raging fire under the rubble.
The tragedy united the Iranian nation in expressing sympathy for the firefighters who sacrificed their lives for saving the residents and workers of the garment shops in the building.
