Fire Breaks Out At KRA Offices

Firefighters responded promptly to a fire that broke out at the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) offices in the Mombasa Port on Wednesday.

The fire started at around 10:00 AM and was extinguished within an hour. No injuries were reported.

The fire affected a section of the offices, but it did not spread to other parts of the port. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

The KRA offices are located inside the port, which is one of the busiest ports in East Africa. The offices provide tax services to companies that operate at the port.

The prompt response by firefighters prevented the fire from spreading and causing more damage. The KPA has an elaborate firefighting brigade that is regularly trained to respond to emergencies.

The fire is a reminder of the importance of fire safety in busy areas like the Mombasa Port. Businesses and organizations should have fire safety plans in place and should conduct regular fire drills to ensure that their employees know what to do in the event of a fire.

The KPA is working to improve fire safety at the port. The authority has installed fire alarms and sprinkler systems in all of its buildings. The KPA is also training its employees on fire safety procedures.

The fire at the KRA offices is a setback, but it is not a major disruption to the operations of the port. The port is still operating normally, and there have been no delays in shipping.

The KPA is committed to ensuring the safety of its employees and visitors. The authority will continue to take steps to improve fire safety at the port.
