A fire broke out at two two-story restaurant units on Jalan Tun Sambanthan in Brickfields, Malaysia, early on November 8, 2026, resulting in injuries to two women. One of the victims sustained a broken left arm, while the other was injured on her right hand. Operations Commander Md Fuad Selamat reported that an emergency call was received at 3:04 am, and emergency services arrived at the scene four minutes later.

Both injured women were transported to Kuala Lumpur Hospital for further medical attention. The cause of the fire and the full extent of the property damage are still under investigation. A total of 35 personnel from the Hang Tuah Fire and Rescue Station, along with assistance from the Pantai and Seputeh Fire and Rescue Stations, were involved in the operation.
