The Prefect of the Capital, Andrei Nistor, announced that 39 families from the building affected by the explosion in Rahova have been relocated to rentals covered by the Bucharest City Hall.

By the end of the week, it is expected that all approximately 50 families from the destroyed building will have guaranteed accommodation. Although residents from the other four buildings have started to return, the affected building remains sealed and guarded, and access is prohibited. Nistor explained that investigators needed time to collect evidence and to ensure the safety of the building. After the building is secured, residents will be able to access their apartments to retrieve personal belongings.
