A huge fire broke out at a police headquarters in the Egyptian city of Ismailia on Monday, injuring at least 38 people before it was put out, according to the health ministry. No fatalities were immediately reported but the building was fully staffed with policemen when the fire broke out before dawn, The New Arab reports. By the time the first rescue services arrived, the blaze had engulfed the entire building of the Ismailia Security Directorate.
The disaster was blamed on the dilapidated building which housed the church, and the maze of alleyways in the neighbourhood where it was located, which slowed down arriving firefighters.
