A massive fire at Hong Kong’s Wang Fuk Court housing complex has killed at least 128 people, with around 200 still missing and nearly 80 injured.

Authorities say the blaze began in flammable netting around scaffolding, rapidly spreading across seven buildings fueled by styrofoam and bamboo structures.

Fire alarms in all eight blocks failed to activate, intensifying public anger and calls for government transparency and accountability, NBC News has reported.

The Independent Commission Against Corruption has arrested eight people — including consultants and subcontractors — while police investigate possible manslaughter tied to the renovation project.

Firefighting efforts were hampered by extreme heat, and one firefighter died while 12 others were injured.
