The fire occurred at the Na Ladprao pub in the northern part of Bangkok, forcing patrons to flee into toilets were many perished. Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul described the scene as filled with smoke, noting that most victims sought refuge in restrooms that lacked proper escape routes. The fire allegedly started near the stage where a band was performing,after a circuit breaker smoked and caused a power outage,which was followed by an explosion that rapidly spread flames,possibly across the ceiling. Bangkok authorities are investigating whether the venue adhered to safety laws, including permitting regulations, especially as some exits may have been obstructed. The fire was brought under control within about 30 minutes, and 63 individuals were hospitalized. Bangkok&#8217;s history includes a devastating nightclub fire in 2009 that killed 66 people. Additionally, the report mentions a shooting at a Toronto music festival resulting in at least two deaths.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<article class=\"fn-body\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At least 27 people are dead and another 22 are in critical condition after a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/fires\/\">fire<\/a> at a bar in Bangkok, <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/thailand\/page\/4\/\">Thailand<\/a>, erupted <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/thailand-bangkok-fire-pub-0869e3d356d4be11c5633f9ceb3dc329\">early Monday morning<\/a> local time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A large blaze engulfed the Na Ladprao pub in the northern part of the nation\u2019s capital, sending patrons fleeing into the bathrooms at the back of the venue, where many of them died.<\/p>\n<section class=\"explore-more-section\" id=\"wex-recommended-widget\">\n<div class=\"magazine-container single\">\n<h1 class=\"magazine-title mt-2\">Recommended Stories<\/h1>\n<p>             <i class=\"fa-solid fa-play icon\"><\/i>         <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-grid\">\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/4645502\/us-launches-strikes-iran-tehran-attacks-gulf\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>US launches additional strikes on Iran after Tehran broadened attacks in the Gulf<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/4645442\/iran-gulf-state-target-list-strait-closed\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Iran returns to no-limits Gulf State target list after declaring Strait of Hormuz closed<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/world\/4645179\/iran-strikes-cargo-ship-declares-strait-of-hormuz-closed\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Iran hits cargo ship in Strait of Hormuz as CENTCOM announces new strikes<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\">Bodies of victims of a fire are seen laid in a row in Bangkok, Thailand, Monday, July 13, 2026.
