The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said that Bangladesh Civil Aviation, Fire Service, Bangladesh Army, two fire units of Bangladesh Air Force and Bangladesh Navy have joined the fire control. In addition, two platoons of BGB have also been deployed to help control the fire.


Meanwhile, an eager crowd was seen gathering outside the Cargo Village. The Air Force is asking them to move away through mikes.


Md. Russell Mollah, a driver of Voyager Aviation, who was involved in loading and unloading cargo from the aircraft, said that his car was near gate number 8 when the fire broke out and the people inside were quickly evacuated.
