A huge fire erupted on Sunday evening in a number of warehouses in the Iranian capital of Tehran, the official news agency IRNA reported.

In remarks to IRNA, Jalal Maleki, spokesman of the Tehran Fire Department said those warehouses were constructed mostly using unsafe materials.
He added that firefighters from five stations were immediately sent to the scene to put out the blaze, noting that the warehouses' ceilings had collapsed because of the intense heat.
No casualty has so far been reported.
