Two months after a fire broke out in the attic of a five-storey apartment building in Rezekne, residents are still waiting for renovation work to begin. The building was evacuated at the time, and there were no casualties, but the restoration of the property has not started yet.

Those living in the building are waiting for answers about the repairs and who will cover the losses. The building management has acknowledged that it has never dealt with such a situation before. The person responsible for the fire has also not been named.

For now, there is no clarity on when the damaged roof structures will be restored or how the repair process will be organised. Residents also remain uncertain about how compensation will be handled and when normal living conditions can be restored. The prolonged wait has added to the concerns of the residents, who say they are left without clear information about the next steps.

There is still no word on when all the circumstances will be clarified or what actions will be taken in the near future. Residents can only wait for answers and concrete decisions from those responsible.
