The incident in the North Jakarta subdistrict affected a total of 34 vessels, according to DPKP DKI Jakarta, a regional disaster response agency. There were no fatalities caused by the fire. However, three people were injured and taken to a local hospital.

One hundred sixty firefighters, twenty-three fire trucks, and three fire units were battling the fire, which was extinguished at 6:00 AM local time on February 24.

As reported, the fire started aboard a fishing vessel during welding operations. Due to strong winds, it spread quickly to other ships anchored at the port.
