Colonel Al-Sharani told Lesson News that several firefighters' units arrived at the scene as soon as they received reports of a fire in the control room of the Civil Defense, which immediately began operations to evacuate the plaza.
The fire destroyed two floors of the cinema hall, but no casualties were reported. People at the adjacent residential hotel experienced severe problems due to smoke in the plaza. The smoke rising from the plaza also filled the adjoining building, where civil defense units evacuated 219 people and moved them to a safe location.

Relevant teams began work to investigate the fire at the Commercial Plaza to identify the cause of the fire.
