Massive blaze hits UAE residential skyscrapers

A large fire has hit at least two residential towers in the United Arab Emirates, in the third such incident in a little more than a year. The fire struck one tower in Ajman emirate, north of Dubai, before spreading to an adjacent block. Residents were evacuated, but several have reportedly been treated for breathing problems and minor injuries. Information from the Ajman civil defence said the fire had been extinguished by Tuesday morning and that teams were waiting for the building to cool down.
