Investigations are under way into the cause of a fire that broke out in Sharjah Heritage Village on Saturday.
The fire started at around 7pm in one of the huts and quickly spread to neighbouring huts.
Firefighters managed to control the blaze, reaching the site in less than four minutes, according to Col Sami Al Naqbi, director-general of Sharjah Civil Defence.
They prevented the fire from spreading across the village which includes traditional markets, Col Al Naqbi said.
No casualties were reported and the site has since been handed over to police to investigate the cause.

Why your domicile status is important
Your UK residence status is assessed using the statutory residence test. While your residence status – ie where you live - is assessed every year, your domicile status is assessed over your lifetime.
Your domicile of origin generally comes from your parents and if your parents were not married, then it is decided by your father. Your domicile is generally the country your father considered his permanent home when you were born.
UK residents who have their permanent home ("domicile") outside the UK may not have to pay UK tax on foreign income. For example, they do not pay tax on foreign income or gains if they are less than £2,000 in the tax year and do not transfer that gain to a UK bank account.
A UK-domiciled person, however, is liable for UK tax on their worldwide income and gains when they are resident in the UK.
Business Insights
- Canada and Mexico are significant energy suppliers to the US, providing the majority of oil and natural gas imports
- The introduction of tariffs could hinder the US's clean energy initiatives by raising input costs for materials like nickel
- US domestic suppliers might benefit from higher prices, but overall oil consumption is expected to decrease due to elevated costs
