The fires broke out in Yishun Close from Nov 20 to Nov 27, SCDF said.

The Straits Times understands that the incidents happened at the North Gaia construction site.

SCDF added that the fires mainly involved construction materials and furniture at various locations within the construction site, and that they were put out either by firefighters or by construction workers on site.

In one of the incidents, two people were taken to Singapore General Hospital for smoke inhalation. No other injuries were reported.
