A huge fire that started early on Wednesday has gutted more than 100 shops in the Deira district of Dubai, reported Gulf News. The cluster of shops caught fire around 1:45 am due to an electrical short circuit in an air-conditioning unit, which was located next to a transformer, according to an unconfirmed witness account. The market sold textiles, ready-made garments, perfumes and toys. No injuries have been reported.
