A fire swept through an apartment building in an older neighbourhood of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, killing at least 16 people and injuring nine, authorities said Sunday.
The blaze on Saturday in the Al Murar area of Dubai’s historic Deira area struck a flat believed to have been shared by multiple individuals, a common practice for labourers who power the economy in this city state known more for its towering skyscrapers.
But the tight quarters, often subdivided by makeshift barriers of plywood, plasterboard or shower curtains, can become a major risk in fires.
