Fire in Makkah

حريق البرج المجاور للحرم المكي كان بسبب “مدخنة مطعم” وتمت السيطرة عليه خلال دقائق

Fire tower adjacent to the campus was in Mecca because of
the "chimney restaurant" and was brought under control within minutes


17 February 2012

قال العقيد علي المنتشري الناطق الإعلامي في الدفاع المدني بالعاصمة المقدسة إن الحريق الذي شوهد في أحد الأدوار العليا في فندق بمواجهة الحرم المكي الشريف نتج عن انتثار (زيت قلي) في مدخنة مطعم “الطازج” وقد تمت السيطرة عليه في غضون دقائق دون تسجيل أي إصابات.

وذكرت مصادر إخبارية أن سبب الدخان الذي رآه مرتادو المسجد الحرام هو بسبب ارتفاع نسبة الزيوت والتسربات في مدخنة مطعم الطازج، الواقع بمشروع مكة للإنشاء والتعمير، ولم يصل لأدوار الفندق ولم يحدث أي تأثير كما لم يسفر عن أي إصابة.

وقال المنتشري إن فِرَق الدفاع المدني باشرت الوضع حال ورود بلاغ، واتضح أن زيادة نسبة الأدخنة الخارجة من مدخنة المطعم كانت بشكل كثيف نتيجة تسرب الزيوت والترسبات بالمدخنة.

الجدير بالذكر أن ظهور أعمدة الدخان تلت أداء المصلين لصلاة العشاء في الحرم المكي الشريف مما أدى إلى سرعة انتشاره عبر الشبكات الإجتماعية.

According to news sources that the cause of the smoke he saw Mrtado the Grand Mosque is due to the high proportion of oil leaks in the chimney and fresh restaurant, located to the draft Mecca for Reconstruction and Development, did not reach the roles of the hotel and there was no effect and did not result in any injury.

Montashari said that civil defense teams started the event and the situation Rhode communication, and it became clear that increasing the proportion of smoke emerging from the chimney of the restaurant was a result of leakage of heavy oils and sediments Palmdkhna.

It is worth mentioning that the appearance of smoke followed the performance of the worshipers to evening prayers at the Haram al-Sharif, which led to its rapid spread through social networks.

OK, What are those? Another mega-project made by Mecca to turn it into a Vegas Style worship paradise? And I mean it in a good way.
