  "account": "A fire at a seaside resort in Bangladesh's Cox's Bazar district killed at least ten people and injured nine, according to The Express Tribune. The blaze engulfed the three-story TUPTUP Resto and Resort in Inani, located near Patuartek Beach along Marine Drive. The cause of the fire remains unknown. Deputy Assistant Director Syed Muhammad Morshed Hossain of the Cox's Bazar Fire Service confirmed that the entire structure was destroyed. Cox's Bazar Deputy Commissioner A Mannan reported that six bodies had been recovered, with DNA samples to be collected before their families receive the remains. Five of the injured sustained burns covering about 5% of their bodies, while the remaining person was injured in a fall and later discharged after receiving first aid. Around 30 people were present at the resort when the fire broke out, with four to five individuals managing to escape. The whereabouts and condition of the remaining guests are unclear.",
