KARACHI: An oil terminal belonging to a private company caught fire at Port Qasim.

According to reports, the blaze erupted during the process of supplying oil, after which the procedure was immediately suspended.

The neighbourhood is making attempts to control the fire so it doesn’t spread to the oil depot in the vicinity.

“We are trying to extinguish the fire and have called fire brigades,” a Port Qasim spokesperson said.

Port Qasim is Pakistan’s second-busiest seaport and is located on the coastline of the Arabian Sea.
