An investigation 1 is underway into the warehouse 2 fire in northeast China's Harbin city which has killed 5 firefighters and injured 14 others.


Several people have been detained for questioning.


The fire broke out Friday afternoon at the warehouse of a ceramics 3 market.


Nearly 3,000 local residents have been forced to evacuate 4 their homes and stay in temporary housing.


Firefighters say the cause of the fire has been hard to determine due to the building's complicated structure, and the building is at risk of collapsing 5.


The International Olympic Committee has expressed great sadness over the death of former IOC member and vice 6 president He Zhenliang from China.


In a message, current IOC President Thomas Bach called He Zhenliang a "true advocate of the social values of sport and of the Olympic Movement."


Bach has asked for the Olympic flag to be flown at half-staff for three days in tribute to He Zhenliang.


Nicknamed "China's Mr. Olympics", He Zhenliang was instrumental in bringing back China to the IOC in 1979 and in Beijing's successful bid for the right to host the 2008 Olympic Games.


He Zhenliang became IOC Honorary Member in 2010.
