Update: 2:24PM THE National Fire Authority has once again urged people and other stakeholders to work together to reduce home fires in the country.

The request comes after another house was destroyed by fire.

A three-bedroom concrete flat at Davuilevu in Nausori was destroyed by fire around midnight on Sunday.

NFA chief executive officer John O'Connor said the authority had attended to 25 property fires so far this year, out of which 21 were house fires.
