A huge fire gutted a factory in the new industrial zone in the UAE emirate of Ajman without causing casulaties, according to Al Bayan.
Civil defence firefighting units put out the blaze which engulfed the plant and destroyed a large quantity of paints and wood.
Firefighting units from Sharjah were also deployed to contain the blaze before it could spread to neighbouring facilities.
Civil defence officer Lieutenant Nawaf Ateeq said that a neighbouring warehouse had also been damaged due to the blaze.
