    No Body was injured, and it was one big carpet shop not a furniture shops.

    sad, the furniture outlet has to go thru, during these trying times… maybe their insurers are better givers :)

    That’s a big fire? What are they going to do if an office building catches – God forbid.

    This time of year (June – July), there are always a lot of “inventory reduction” fires. There usually aren’t many in August because that’s when everybody goes on vacation.

    :D

    i cud see that the firefighters were constantly running out of water to put out the fire..i doubt if the kuwait fire dept is equipped well enough to contain a situation of large magnitude…

    In a country where everybody smokes, anywhere they want to…I wonder how the fire started?
