Abu Dhabi Police and fire crews tackle blaze at factory in Mussaffah

Abu Dhabi emergency services, including police and civil defence teams, responded to a factory fire in the Mussaffah area of the Industrial City of Abu Dhabi on Tuesday afternoon. The blaze was brought under control after over three hours, with no injuries reported. This incident marks the third industrial fire in the emirate within a week, following similar incidents at a farm in Al Bahia on Monday and a warehouse in Al Mafraq Industrial Area on September 3. In all cases, authorities did not disclose causes or damage extents, and social media updates from Abu Dhabi Police omitted casualty information.

Abu Dhabi Police and Civil Defence Authority teams tackled a factory fire in the Mussaffah area of the Industrial City of Abu Dhabi (ICAD III) on Tuesday afternoon, bringing the blaze under control after over three hours. No injuries were reported in the incident. Emergency services conducted cooling and smoke-extraction operations at the scene. The fire follows two other industrial incidents in the emirate within a week. A blaze at a farm in Al Bahia on Monday evening was contained without casualties, and similar measures were taken at a warehouse in Al Mafraq Industrial Area on September 3. In both cases, authorities did not release details about the causes or damage extents. Abu Dhabi Police stated on social media that the factory fire required emergency response efforts but did not confirm whether any casualties occurred. Officials emphasized that the public should seek information only from official sources. This aligns with previous statements regarding the Al Bahia and Al Mafraq fires, where no injuries were reported and causes remained undisclosed. Firefighters from Abu Dhabi Police and Civil Defence Authority worked together to manage all three incidents. Each time, teams focused on containment and post-fire safety procedures. The recent series of fires has prompted repeated calls for caution and adherence to official communication channels. Authorities have not yet released further details about the factory fire’s origin or the full scope of damage. Ongoing investigations into the cause of each incident are reportedly underway. No additional updates are expected until further information is available.
