Deadly Saudi Arabia fire at Aramco complex in Khobar

-

A fire at a  residential  complex in Saudi Arabia has left 11 people dead and injured at least 200 others, Saudi     officials say.

They said multiple nationalities were among the injured - some  critically. The fire broke out at  a site  used to house workers for the oil giant Saudi Aramco in the eastern city of Khobar.

The cause is unknown. Some people were reportedly trapped on rooftops
as helicopters battled to control the blaze.

Like many companies in Saudi Arabia, Aramco uses large numbers of migrant workers.

Saudi's civil defence ministry tweeted: "Cars and furniture caught fire in the basement of one of  the towers,  heavy  smoke    billowed, obstructing rescue and firefighting operations." Aramco     says    it   has begun  an  investigation   into the cause.
