Major fire destroys prestigious Egypt film set

Flames spread throughout the Al-Ahram Studio in Giza, forcing the evacuation of three surrounding buildings.

The film set is said to be one of the Arab world's oldest and most prestigious production houses, which was founded 80 years ago.

The cause of the fire is still unknown and there were no deaths as a result. However some people were treated for smoke inhalation.
