Two Fires Hospitalize Four in Ireland and US

Two separate fires hospitalized four people each: one at Benny's Chinese Restaurant in Bray, Co Wicklow, Ireland, and another at a residence in Dunbar Township, Fayette County, Pennsylvania. In Bray, a fire likely caused by a small explosion at the salad bar resulted in four people suffering burns, with at least one person sustaining severe injuries. In Fayette County, a house fire trapped three family members and a caretaker, all of whom were rescued; one person is reported in critical condition. Emergency services and investigators have sealed off both sites and are conducting ongoing investigations. Local authorities in both locations stress that the cause of each fire remains unclear. Both incidents remain active as officials ensure the safety of the affected areas.
