2003年11月3日凌晨,湖南省衡阳市一所商居楼发生火灾,在烧了数小时后,大楼轰然倒塌,正在现场救火的20名消防官兵壮烈牺牲。导致火灾发生及持续数小时之久的原因,截至目前仍没有权威结论。胡锦涛、温家宝、罗干等中央领导同志为此作出重要批示,对牺牲的消防官兵表示深切的哀悼和 On the early morning of November 3, 2003, a fire broke out in a commercial building in Hengyang, Hunan Province. After a few hours of burning, the building collapsed and the fire officers and soldiers who were on fire at the scene died in a heroic sacrifice. The reason that led to the fire and lasted for several hours still has no authoritative conclusion so far. Hu Jintao, Wen Jiabao, Luo Gan and other central leading comrades made important instructions to this end and expressed their deep condolences to the sacrificial fire officers and soldiers
