Sharjah fire: Cooling operations underway after massive blaze in Al Hamriyah

Cooling operations are currently underway at Al Hamriyah Port in Sharjah, following a massive fire that took 24 hours to bring under control. The fire broke out at 6.10 am on Saturday and was fully contained by 6.25am on Sunday morning, according to officials. The cooling process aims to prevent any potential flare-ups; once the area is declared safe, forensic and technical teams will be allowed to enter the site and begin investigations into the cause of the fire. Results of the investigations will be announced after all technical assessments. The fire, described as one of the largest industrial blazes in the emirate in recent years, was caused by the ignition of highly flammable petrochemical materials. The intensity of the flames and smoke was such that they could be seen from neighbouring emirates. Authorities responded swiftly, activating a coordinated emergency response that involved local and federal entities. Sharjah Civil Defence deployed advanced firefighting equipment including foam tankers and high-capacity water pumps. The Sharjah Civil Aviation Authority and the Sharjah International Airport Authority provided aerial surveillance using helicopters and air jets to assess the spread and intensity of the fire. Municipal teams from Sharjah and Al Hamriyah supported the operation by supplying water tankers and logistical support. Sharjah Police cordoned off the surrounding areas, evacuated nearby buildings, and managed traffic to ensure public safety. Major General Abdullah Mubarak bin Amer, Commander-in-Chief of Sharjah Police and Chairman of the Local Emergency, Crisis and Disaster Management Team, praised the professionalism of the teams involved. 'The rapid response, high-level coordination, and use of specialised equipment played a vital role in bringing the situation under control without casualties,' he said. 'What we witnessed was an integrated national effort.' Key support also came from the Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Defence, National Guard, National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority (NCEMA), and the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (Adnoc), all of whom contributed equipment, personnel, and technical expertise.

Sharjah Police refer two men to public prosecution after road rage turns violent

Sharjah Police started investigating an assault incident that took place on one of the emirate's streets. Earlier, a dispute broke out between two Arabs while driving and snowballed into a verbal and physical assault between the two parties due to a misunderstanding. Immediately after receiving a report to this effect, police patrols rushed to the scene of the incident, where they summoned both parties, took their statements and referred the case to the Public Prosecution for further legal procedures. Brigadier Ibrahim Musabah Al Ajel, Director General of General Department of Comprehensive Police Stations, affirmed that Sharjah Police deal firmly with such incidents that do not reflect a proper social practice, stressing the importance of self-control in daily situations and the need to avoid being swept away by negative reactions. He also underscored the need to avoid filming such incidents and posting them on social media, noting that this constitutes a legal violation punishable by law. Such material should be submitted directly to the concerned authorities to enable them to take the necessary action, he said. Reiterating its commitment to maintaining security and stability, Sharjah Police called on everyone to co-operate and participate positively in promoting a safe environment for all. They also urged the members of society to report any misconduct or illegal actions on 901, which is designated for receiving non-emergency reports and general inquiries.
