Thirteen Pakistanis including eight children were confirmed dead on Monday when a blaze tore through their corrugated metal home in a rural area of western Jordan, authorities said.
Rescue services said “13 people died and three others were injured when fire broke out in a corrugated metal house” on a farm in South Shona, around 50 kilometres (30 miles) west of Amman.
The makeshift building was home to two Pakistani families working as agricultural labourers, they said in a statement.
