A fire broke out in a 35-story building in Dubai next to the iconic Burj Khalifa, according to the Associated Press.
It is not yet clear if there are any casualties. By the time the AP brigade arrived at the scene, firefighters had put it out. The cause of the fire has not yet been reported.
In recent years, a series of fires at high-rise buildings in Dubai have raised questions about the safety of the materials used in their construction.
In 2015, on New Year’s Eve, a fire broke out in Address Downtown, one of the most luxurious hotel and residential complexes in Dubai, which is also located in a skyscraper next to the Burj Khalifa.
