Just FYI for anyone planning to head to the Kyushu area, specifically Kitakyushu, in the near future.
The fire is located at Torimachi Shokudo Gai, about 300 meters north of the Tanga Market. Another article says it has destroyed the Uomachi Gintengai arcade and surrounding area. The fire started around 3pm today, and from current videos, looks contained, if not extinguished.
