卢旺达穆桑泽主要市场GOICO Plaza发生大火 无人员死亡报告
2026年10月10日下午，卢旺达北部省穆桑泽市的主要市场GOICO Plaza发生大火。据卢旺达《新时报》与Taarifa等媒体报道，火情约在下午4时从这座五层商业建筑的屋顶燃起，迅速蔓延至二层，大量货物被毁，灭火工作持续数小时。穆桑泽区当局表示，火灾没有造成人员死亡。
GOICO Plaza是穆桑泽市最主要的商贸中心，聚集2000多名商户，每天约有1.2万人次进出，经营服装、鞋类、电子产品与日用商品。据商户向媒体讲述，有鞋类商户一家店铺的货物损失达1800万卢郎；火灾原因尚未确认，有现场目击者提到事发前楼内曾进行屋顶维修作业，但当局未证实两者关联。
地方政府次日通报，两名人员受轻伤，另有15人因受惊吓接受医疗处置，其中两人留院观察。北部省私营部门联合会表示，市场是当地数千个家庭生计的来源，损失评估工作正在进行。
穆桑泽市长恩塞吉马纳次日到市场安抚商户，呼吁受灾者逐步恢复日常经营，等待相关部门完成损失评估与后续处置。卢旺达政府已对商户表示慰问，并承诺支持市场修复。
Fire Guts GOICO Plaza, Musanze's Main Market; No Deaths Reported
A major fire broke out on the afternoon of 10 October 2026 at GOICO Plaza, the main market of Musanze city in Rwanda's Northern Province. The New Times and Taarifa reported that the fire started at about 4pm on the roof of the five-storey commercial building and spread rapidly down to the second floor, destroying large quantities of goods; firefighting efforts continued for hours. Musanze District authorities said no fatalities were recorded.
GOICO Plaza is Musanze's principal trading centre, home to more than 2,000 traders and about 12,000 visitors a day, selling clothing, shoes, electronics and household goods. One shoe trader's family told reporters that stock worth Rwf18 million had been lost in a single shop. The cause of the fire has not been confirmed; witnesses mentioned roofing repair work under way in the building, but authorities have not linked the work to the blaze.
The Ministry of Local Government said the following day that two people sustained minor injuries and 15 others required medical attention for psychological shock, two of whom remained in hospital. The Northern Province Private Sector Federation said the market supports thousands of families and that damage assessment was under way.
Musanze District Mayor Claudien Nsengimana visited the market the next morning to console traders and urged them to gradually resume their activities while authorities complete assessments. The government condoled with affected traders and pledged support for repairing the market.
