From Swiss Fire Tragedy to Clown School Fails: World in Brief

Death Toll Rises to 41 in Swiss Bar Fire

Crans-Montana, Switzerland – The death toll from a New Year's Eve fire at Le Constellation bar in the Swiss alpine resort of Crans-Montana has risen to 41, after an 18-year-old Swiss national died in a Zurich hospital on Saturday, according to the Associated Press. The blaze, which broke out in the early hours of January 1, 2026, also left 116 people injured, many of whom were teenagers.

Prosecutors believe the fire was likely caused by sparklers igniting soundproof foam on the ceiling of the crowded bar during New Year's celebrations, Euronews reported. Most of the victims were young, including teenagers as young as 14.

Flower tributes have been placed at the entrance of the "Le Constellation" bar and lounge, according to NPR. Swiss investigators are continuing to investigate the incident.
