]]> IPSE, one of Berlin’s most iconic clubs was the victim of an arson attack yesterday, resulting in serious damage. The fire caused the complete destruction of the entire indoor area and parts of the outdoor area.

“We are still speechless. Standing in the ruins of what dozens of people put years of energy and passion into is almost excruciating – and it is unbearable to imagine that this happened purposefully.“

A similar tragedy is never welcome, but the current economic and lockdown situation makes this even more dramatic. The fire started around 5 AM CEST and was eliminated by 1 PM. One firefighter was sent to the hospital following the operation, according to the German media Der Tagesspiegel.

To make things worse, and according to IPSE, insurance companies are refusing to compensate for the damage of the inventory, including technical equipment.

Donation campaign

“Despite this unprecedented situation, we all positive that we will continue. We have set up a donation campaign with which you can support us and ensure that one of the last open-air clubs in Berlin is preserved.”

The Berlin club shared on its Facebook page the devastating news but insisted on staying positive. IPSE has set up a fund-raising campaign to help the venue stay alive after the Covid-19 crisis and the arson. If you want to help, learn more here.

]]> Currently the 27 story Grenfell Tower is engulfed in fire in London, rekindling fears after the Manchester Terror attack and the wave of recent attacks during the Ramadan period. At this time the exact source of the fire is unknown, however the entire face of the building was engulfed in a very short period of time. Although accidents do happen, reports indicate that a fire of this size and scope is unusual for a building of this design and construction.

Word has come in that the tower was a known fire risk in the past, so this might be related to that fact.

Reports indicate that 40 fire trucks were called to scene and authorities fear a building collapse. We have embedded live coverage above, as the regular news outlets have no yet begun covering the story live. While no nefarious purpose is known at this point, the scene is horrible nonetheless.
