Four people became victims of a fire in a house in the Smolensk region

"The open burning was liquidated, the bodies of four people were found, two of them are children," RIA Novosti quotes a representative of the region's emergency services.

Earlier, investigators opened a criminal case after the death of a woman and two children in a fire in a private house in Chelyabinsk.

In February, URA.RU reported that three people died in a fire in Kurgan.
