Two children have tragically died after a fire broke out at their home in the Al-Qasi area of Tripoli, the Ambulance and Emergency Service confirmed on Sunday.

In a statement, the ambulance service attributed the cause of the fire to "the poor quality of the electrical materials entering the local market," saying it is claiming the lives of children every week.

It urged the Ministry of Interior and the authorities responsible for border crossings to form a committee to inspect the quality of electrical materials and appliances imported to the country.
