A deadly inferno tore through a massive housing complex in Hong Kong last week, killing at least 128 people with many more still missing, in the city’s worst disaster in decades. ( CNN ) The death toll has been rising each day, as officials work to recover and identify bodies. ( BBC ) The fire started at Wang Fuk Court, a housing estate in Hong Kong's Tai Po district. The complex, built in 1983, consists of eight high-rise buildings with a total of 1,984 flats. Property records show that Wang Fuk Court has been undergoing major renovation work, costing about $42.43m. ( Al Jazeera ) Preliminary investigations showed the fire started last Wednesday afternoon on a lower-level scaffolding net of one of the buildings, and then spread rapidly inside as the foam panels caught fire and blew out windows, according to Chris Tang, Hong Kong's secretary for security. Winds helped the flames jump from building to building and soon seven of the eight were engulfed. It took until Friday morning, some 40 hours later, for more than 2,000 firefighters to finally extinguish all the flames. ( AP ) The exact cause of the fire is not yet known, but a criminal investigation has been launched. ( CNN ) The eight buildings of the Wang Fuk Court complex in the suburb of Tai Po had all been clad in bamboo scaffolding draped with nylon netting for renovations, with windows covered by polystyrene panels, and authorities are now investigating whether fire codes were violated. ( AP ) Three days of national mourning started on Saturday, and thousands have gathered at the scene to mourn the victims. There have been queues stretching as long as 2km, as people wait to lay flowers and handwritten notes. ( BBC ) The apartment blocks were home to more than 4,000 people, according to census data, and those that escaped must now try to get their lives back on track.
