A fire broke out in an Emirati family's home in Ajman on Monday.
Civil Defence responded to the blaze in Al Jurf 2 at 3.30pm and were able to contain the damage to one room.
The cause of the fire — which completely destroyed the inside of the bedroom — is yet under investigation.
Lt Col Raed Al Zaabi, deputy director of Civil Defense centres' administration, said the site was cooled and cleared of smoke and that there were no injuries.
He called on residents to take necessary safety precautions at home and routinely check air conditioning units and electric connections.

Who was Alfred Nobel?
The Nobel Prize was created by wealthy Swedish chemist and entrepreneur Alfred Nobel.
- In his will he dictated that the bulk of his estate should be used to fund "prizes to those who, during the preceding year, have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind".
- Nobel is best known as the inventor of dynamite, but also wrote poetry and drama and could speak Russian, French, English and German by the age of 17. The five original prize categories reflect the interests closest to his heart.
- Nobel died in 1896 but it took until 1901, following a legal battle over his will, before the first prizes were awarded.
