A fire broke out in a 35-storey building in Dubai near Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building early Monday morning.
The cause of the fire is still unknown.
The news agency reported that authorities were yet to confirm if anyone was injured.
It is the latest in a series of fires in towers in skyscraper-studded Dubai in recent years, reviving questions about the safety of the buildings and cladding used in the country.
On New Year’s Eve in 2015, a blaze engulfed the Address Downtown, one of the most upmarket hotels in Dubai, also near the Burj Khalifa.
