Dubai, Dec 4: On an early Wednesday morning, a fire broke out in a storeroom at the Roda hotel staff accommodation in Al Qouz 4.
As per sources, the workers who were on vacation had organised a small get together in the area where someone left a burning cigarette butt, believed to be the cause of the fire.
Since the area contained several inflammable items, the fire spread out. The security evacuated the staff and informed the civil defence and police who are in the process of containing the fire.
Although sources claimed the cigarette was the cause for the fire, authorities have still not released an official statement regarding the source of fire.
