MATANZAS, Cuba—Massive clouds of steam rose from Cuba’s largest fuel depot in Matanzas on Wednesday as firefighters, helicopters, and boats poured water and foam on the smoldering remains of the largest fire in the island’s history.
Black charcoal covered with white ash remained red hot after the flames died down. One firefighter was confirmed dead, five remain in critical condition, and 14 were unaccounted for since blast on Saturday, according to authorities.
