A survivor of the fire at a beer bar in Bangkok's Ladprao area has shared her account of the disaster on Facebook. According to her testimony, she noticed a gas smell about 5-10 minutes before the fire started. Her older sister had just gone to the restroom when someone shouted that a fire had broken out. The survivor ran out as thick black smoke engulfed the venue, making it almost impossible to breathe. She heard explosions as she fled. The bar was not heavily crowded at the time, with around 100 people inside as customers were arriving in waves. Her older sister was still in the bathroom when the fire started, and her current whereabouts remain unknown. Authorities have only recovered a purse and phone, and a missing person report has been filed. The survivor is praying for her sister's safety.
