Dubai: An explosion inside a container on a ship docked at the Dubai port caused a massive fire on the vessel. It was later extinguished with the help of firefighters.
According to reports, the blaze in the Middle East’s largest transshipment hub was caused by a container holding flammable material.
There was, however, no loss of lives.
Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police, Lieutenant General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri said, “The fire in Jebel Ali Port broke out onboard a small-sized container ship. No casualties were reported.”
