Canadian military base fire kills 4, injures 39

Filed · 3 publisher pages · upstream origin unresolved

Fire at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright in Alberta killed four service members and injured 39, including 19 in critical condition. The incident occurred during a military training exercise and is under investigation.

The fire broke out Saturday during a training exercise at the base, which is one of Canada's busiest military training areas. Uncommonly strong winds caused the fire to spread rapidly and shift direction.

Prime Minister Mark Carney described the incident as one of the worst peacetime tragedies for Canada's military. The injured were transferred to hospitals across Alberta, with healthcare facilities overwhelmed by the number of patients.

The cause of the fire is under investigation, and no terrorism is suspected. The incident has led to a major medical response, with military personnel and emergency services working to contain the situation.
