A devastating fire at a pub in Bangkok has killed at least 27 people and injured several others who were taken to hospital, authorities said.
The blaze broke out around midnight local time in the Thai capital, rapidly engulfing the venue before emergency crews could bring it under control. The cause of the fire remains unknown and is under active investigation, officials said.
The death toll of at least 27 makes it one of the deadliest nightclub fires in Thailand in recent years.
