No escape from blaze: Blocked exits turn China's shoe plant into burning tomb

At least 28 people have been killed after a massive fire tore through a shoe factory in Jinjiang, Fujian Province, China. Reports say blocked exits, highly flammable materials, and rapidly spreading flames trapped workers inside the building. Dramatic visuals showed thick black smoke engulfing the factory as survivors waited on rooftops for rescue. More than 500 firefighters responded to the blaze, while Chinese President Xi Jinping ordered an all-out rescue operation and a full investigation into the tragedy.
