Around 1:20 p.m., a fire erupted in the basement of a two-story house, about 4 meters wide, located at 49C Truong Cong Dinh. The building, a musical instrument shop, sits in a busy neighborhood about 300 meters from Da Lat Market.

Smoke billowed from the basement of the burning house. *Khanh Huong*

Within minutes, smoke billowed, obscuring the entire facade of the house and engulfing the upper floors. Thick smoke spilled onto the street, limiting visibility, and a strong burning smell spread throughout the surrounding area.

According to witnesses, the fire erupted with a small explosion, and no one was seen evacuating the house. About 10 minutes later, firefighters mobilized 5 vehicles and numerous officers to the scene.

The house's narrow space allowed the fire to spread quickly, and thick smoke made access difficult. Firefighters, wearing fire-resistant gear and gas masks, entered the scene to extinguish the blaze.

A busy section of the street was cordoned off by police to extinguish the fire. *Khanh Huong*

By 3:30 p.m., the fire was extinguished. Authorities have not reported any casualties, and the cause is under investigation.
