An underage girl was killed in a fire that razed 23 houses on Jl. Elang, Sukapura, North Jakarta, on Saturday.
The head of operational affairs at the North Jakarta Fire and Natural Disaster Agency, Muchtar Zakaria, said on Sunday that his side had received a report that the fire had claimed one life.
According to the report, 4-year-old Nurul Aini died while her parents, Suketi and Wati, sustained burns. Nurul's body was taken to Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital (RSCM) while her parents underwent intensive treatment at the hospital.
Muchtar said that upon receiving a report of a fire, his agency had deployed 17 fire trucks to the scene and was able to put out the fire an hour later.
He said his side had yet to identify the cause of the fire.
'The police are still investigating what caused the fire,' he said.
