There was a fire outbreak in a 35-storey building in Dubai near Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building. The incident took place in the early hours of Monday.
The cause of the fire is still unknown.
Meanwhile, according to Daily Mail, the blaze started around 2.20am before spreading through the block, which is part of a complex of towers called 8 Boulevard Walk, built by the state-backed developer Emaar.
By 3.45am the blaze had been extinguished, and this morning black scorch marks could be seen scaling the building.
The news agency reported that authorities were yet to confirm if anyone was injured.
