Landfill fire burning out of control again in Samut Prakarn

Remember the massive trash fire that burned out of control for seven days and filled the air with toxic smoke last month?

Turns out it was never fully extinguished and now it’s back, burning out of control again.

Firefighters have mobilized to fight the blaze at the same Samut Prakan landfill after it started spreading again this morning, NNT reported.
