More than 1000 people gathered in a nightclub in North Macedonia where a huge blaze broke out in the night club. 

According to local media reports, at least 50 people were killed in the accident.

The local media indicated that the fire broke out at around 3 am local time this morning at Club Pulse in Kocani.

The fire broke out and spread to the ceiling and roof of the club, which burned quickly.

A video posted on social media showed huge flames in the building and heavy smoke billowing up into the sky. 

According to Macedonia's Kanal 5, the Minister of Interior, Pance Toshkovski, inspected the scene of the accident while Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski was on his way.

In a statement, the public prosecutor’s office said: ‘The number of victims and injured in the fire is being determined.’
