Hospital fire in Taiwan kills nine people

Nine people have died in a fire at a hospital in southern Taiwan, according to local media.
据当地媒体报道,台湾南部一家医院的火灾已造成 9 人死亡。

The fire struck the Pingtung county hospital at around 09:40 local time (01:00 GMT) – just as Typhoon Krathon made landfall to the west, in neighbouring Kaohsiung.
当地时间 09:40(格林威治标准时间 01:00)左右,大火袭击了屏东县医院——就在台风克拉通向西登陆邻近的高雄时。
