Nearly 300 students and staff were evacuated after a fire broke out at an elementary school in northern Tokyo on Friday morning, leaving 10 people with minor injuries, according to Japanese media.
The blaze started in a fourth-floor music room at Takinogawa No. 3 Elementary School, prompting a large-scale emergency response as dozens of fire engines were deployed and thick smoke spread from the upper floors.
Public broadcaster NHK reported that several students suffered smoke inhalation, while aerial footage showed firefighters accessing damaged windows on the third and fourth floors as they worked to contain the fire.
Authorities confirmed that all students and staff were safely evacuated.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
