		</div><p>North Macedonia’s government will hold an emergency meeting over a fire overnight that ripped through a field hospital set up to treat Covid-19 patients, leaving at least 14 people dead.</p>
<p>The blaze broke out in the western city of Tetovo, where the hospital had been set up following a recent spike in infections in the region that left local hospitals full.</p>
<p>The main prosecutor’s office in the capital, Skopje, said 14 people had been killed in the blaze.</p>
<p>There were no medical personnel among them.</p>
<p>The prosecutor’s office ordered forensic experts to identify the remains.</p>
<p>A number of people were injured, though the exact figure was not immediately available.</p>
<p>Five prosecutors, from Tetovo and Skopje, are working on the investigation into the causes of the fire.</p>
<p>The country’s prime minister Zoran Zaev said in a Facebok post that the blaze followed an explosion at the site.</p>
<p>It was unclear what caused the blast, but there was speculation that it was linked to oxygen supplies.</p>
<p>Health Ministry officials said the bodies of those who died were transferred to hospitals in the capital Skopje, about 30 miles to the east.</p>
<p>With less than 30% of the country’s roughly two million population fully vaccinated, North Macedonia has seen a significant spike in coronavirus infections and deaths since late August.</p>
