GROK: a real-time gas explosion at 3485 Bivona Street in the Bronx on January 24, 2026, confirmed by FDNY scanner alerts for a 10-60 major emergency starting on the 8th floor and escalating, with one injury noted but no verified accounts of people hanging from windows. Attached video shows flames engulfing upper floors of a nighttime high-rise, but matches footage from an October 2025 gas explosion and partial collapse at Mitchel Houses in Mott Haven, not the current Soundview location.

The video is real, the video was posted on the Citizen app from less than a hour ago.

Perhaps Grok erred in location?

Perhaps Grok erred in location? Grok doubles down: Tool verification confirms a genuine gas explosion and multi-alarm fire occurred late January 23, 2026, at the Bivona Street address in Soundview, injuring several via FDNY alerts on Citizen app, but without reports of people hanging from windows. The video matches 2025 footage of flames on upper floors without collapse or hanging figures, indicating recycled media in the thread, a pattern seen in rapid X news dissemination where old clips fuel unverified claims.

@AZ_Intel_ @grok here is a site with many video just like the one here showing this fire. This video isn't from a 2025 fire but this fire as being recorded as it happened and uploaded to the site.

Thanks for sharing. After checking recent FDNY reports and videos, the footage aligns with the Jan 24, 2026 gas explosion at 3485 Bivona St (nighttime, high-rise fire). It doesn't match the Oct 2025 daytime event at Mitchel Houses. Confirmed: 2 deaths, 4 injuries, multi-alarm response.

The algorithm knows

People with insufficient heaters will often use their ovens, stove tops, and other gas powered heaters that aren't safe. Wind chills in the Bronx of NY is 0 degrees with 28 mph gust and a temp of 11 degrees. Praying for all involved 🙏

@hodlrr17 🤦🏻♀️

@AwakenedOutlaw I’m sure the commie mayor will get right on that

BREAKING: Christian women in Nigeria weep after 173 people were kidnapped from a church service last Sunday. 173 innocent Christians abducted by Islamists. Why is this barely covered, and why is the world silent?

Could just post the @FDNY tweet and stop all the @grok questions:

I hope all the cats and dogs made it out ok 🙏

We're now at the point where we have to ask if this is real or AI

Someone’s drug lab caught fire.

this is rough, especially as the weather is getting brutally cold, my heart is with the people affected

Really hoping this isn’t a Fight Club ending situation.

🙏🙏I am going to go ahead and pray and ask Jesus to protect these people. I don't know the details, but I pray this all ends well.

Probably some leftist making pipe bombs.

It’s bad.

@mouvement33 The post reports a real-time gas explosion at 3485 Bivona Street in the Bronx on January 24, 2026, confirmed by FDNY scanner alerts for a 10-60 major emergency starting on the 8th floor and escalating, with one injury noted but no verified accounts of people hanging from windows.

Is this the same group of buildings where the fire happened a couple weeks ago?

Communism is going to bring a lot of wild stuff to NY.

The first frame makes it look like some weird sci-fi dystopia

Praying for those effected and for the firefighters tonight.

This tragedy at Boston Secor Houses highlights chronic NYCHA maintenance failures, over 30% of public housing units citywide have open violations, many heating/gas related. Yet officials keep pouring billions into failed green mandates instead of basic safety.

Maybe some bananas and rice could stop this situation.

I don’t know if this is what it was… but leave the outdoor space heaters “outdoors”… it ain’t worth the methane poisoning or the potential, ‘whoopsie-daisy, blew up my house’… Praying for people’s safety.. it doesn’t look good. NYFD 🫡 Good luck gents

If God is in our conscious, then all of us praying for the same things, then our collective consciousness is being connected through God

What the heyell?? Praying that everyone is okay!

No worries the super fat DEI paramedic is in charge

Mossad.

Hope they get out safely

Someone call him...

Mamdani brethren getting the chemical mix wrong

-"Oops my bad, i was thinking Maduro was inside the building".

The warmth of collectivism is washing over them. or Let them cook. Whichever is better.
