A massive fire has torn through a prominent market in Tehran on Tuesday morning, sending thick plumes of black smoke billowing over the city and prompting a major emergency response.

The blaze broke out at the Jannat Abad Market, a well-known commercial hub in the north-west of the Iranian capital, covering an area of approximately 2,000 square meters.

Tehran’s emergency services confirmed that there were no reports of injuries or casualties in the hours following the incident.

The exact cause of the fire has not yet been confirmed, and an investigation by fire officials is expected to begin once the site is fully cooled.
