[dgridley]

A fire in Dubai has damaged buildings and injured three people at a huge man-made, palm-shaped island being developed off the coast.
The fire burned for about two hours, sending smoke billowing over the luxury Palm Jumeirah project and along the beachfront districts of Dubai.

Reports said the blaze started in the basement of an unfinished tower block.

One report quoted firefighters as saying an electrical fault was to blame.
