Students:

At 6:11 on May 25, the school fire control room received a call from the first floor of Area D of the Zhonglan Student Apartment Phase I. A smoke detector in a dormitory sent a smoke alarm signal. School fire fighters and security personnel rushed to the scene immediately to deal with the problem, and dialed 119 at the same time.

No one was trapped or injured at the scene. After preliminary verification, it was suspected that the power bank caused an open fire in the dormitory.

This fire has brought a lot of inconvenience to the study and life of many students, and we deeply feel guilty. Currently, all departments of the school are doing their best to deal with follow-up related work and do their best to reduce the impact of this fire on students. We will take this as a warning, carefully investigate various fire safety hazards, and deal with the problems discovered in a timely manner without tolerance.

We have noticed some rumors on the Internet about the fire such as "the smoke detector did not alarm" and "the fire hydrant failed". In fact, the above-mentioned problems do not exist in this dormitory area, because the smoke alarm is dedicated to the school's central control room. The central control room receives the smoke detector alarm signal immediately and immediately initiates emergency response, and the fire hydrants can also be used normally. At the same time, through the "Zhongchuan Youmei" suggestion platform, we have received many suggestions from students on improving fire protection work. We will study them carefully and make improvements.

I would like to take this opportunity to tell you that the fire that occurred outside the north gate of Bangzijing dormitory area of ​​Communication University of China last year was of particular concern to friends in the society. We have been working with relevant departments to urge them to pay attention to fire safety. Thank you. Everyone’s concern!

If you have any difficulties, please contact your counselor or college secretary at any time around the clock. The teachers are always with you.
