A fire that broke out at a North Macedonian nightclub where more than a thousand people had gathered for a concert killed at least 50 people, state agency MIA reported on Sunday.

Citing the interior ministry, MIA said “at least 50 people died in a discotheque in Kocani”, a town some 100 kilometres east of the capital Skopje, where “around 1,500 people attended a concert”. AFP could not immediately confirm this information with the Balkan state’s authorities.
The blaze broke out in the early hours of Sunday at the Pulse club in Kocani, a town around 100 km (60 miles) east of the capital, Skopje.
The fire erupted around 03:00 local time (02:00 GMT) at a nightclub in North Macedonia, where the popular hip-hop duo ADN was performing, and the venue remained engulfed in flames for hours.
As many as 1,500 were said to have been attending the concert.
The injured were transported to local hospitals in Kocani and Stip, located about 30 km south of the town.
According to local media reports, the nightclub fire may have been triggered by the use of pyrotechnics during the performance, with video footage revealing sparks from the stage igniting the ceiling, leading to a rapid spread of the flames.
