SINGAPORE: A large-scale firefighting operation took place off Lorong Halus Jetty for more than three hours on Wednesday (Jun 24) night after a blaze broke out at a floating fish farm.

The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it was alerted to a fire on a floating fish farm near Pulau Ubin and Pulau Ketam at about 8.10pm.
