Residents in the German city of Hamburg have been warned of heavy smoke and possible toxins in the air after a major fire broke out at a warehouse. Video circulating on social media shows the warehouse engulfed in flames early Sunday morning, with smoke billowing into the sky. 140 people have been evacuated, and local residents have been instructed to close their windows and doors. Germany’s national railway company, Deutsche Bahn, has suspended trains between Hamburg and the nearby town of Büchen and trains between Hamburg and Berlin are also facing delays of up to 90 minutes.
