A fire at a music bar or pub in Bangkok kills at least 27 people, with dozens more reported injured, according to multiple outlets. The blaze breaks out at the Rong Beer Na Lat Phrao pub in the city’s Lat Phrao area, where survivors and witnesses describe people being trapped inside. Early reports say at least 27 people die, while others are critically injured and treated in hospitals. Some outlets later report the death toll rising, including claims that additional victims die after the initial incident. Reports also differ on the total number of people injured: one set of accounts cites about 25 critically injured, while others mention larger injury figures including people hurt but not necessarily in critical condition.

Thai authorities investigate possible causes. Several reports say police look into factors such as potentially flammable décor and whether negligence contributed to the spread and severity of the fire. The incident is described as one of the deadliest bar or pub fires in Bangkok in recent years, prompting an ongoing investigation and continued assessment of casualties.
