At least 10 people have been killed and several others seriously injured in a fire at a hospital treating coronavirus patients in Romania, officials say.
The blaze broke out in the intensive care unit of the public hospital in the north-eastern city of Piatra Neamt.
One doctor who tried to rescue patients is said to be in a critical condition after suffering serious burns, BBC reported.
Romania's Health Minister Nelu Tataru told local media the fire was "most likely triggered by a short circuit".
The injured doctor, who is said to have suffered severe burning to most of his body, was being transferred to the capital, Bucharest, by a military plane, local media report.
