Firefighters in Golbahar and Mashhad joined forces to control the fire in the industrial town of Ferdowsi, 30 kilometers from Mashhad, fire spokesman Amir Azizi said.

“In coordination with relevant officials, firefighters from stations 36 and 50, along with several heavy firefighting vehicles, arrived at the scene,” he said.
