Doha News has up-to-the-minute coverage. Thank God for an example of a free press in Qatar. I cannot praise them enough. I have been longing for real journalism for a decade now. My heart and prayers are with the families who have lost loved ones.

If that was true, zinc, Qatar should have a week of national mourning to show that they respect the lives of innocent people. Let's see, what will happen.

I can confirm that there were fatalities, as a dear friend of ours' 1 year old baby boy has died as a result of the fire... reports are that there are more children who were in the nursery that have died... I pray that ALLAH gives the families strength to cope with the loss of their children... INALILAHI WA INA ILAHI RAJIOON

Why the Mall Manager, MN?

I would say its probably the fault of shoddy workmanship...which is the developer's problem, not the Mall Manager's.

"timebandit said: Sorry am a bit busy here. I have seen loads of casualties some small children. It is still burning here but the ambulances have calmed down now. When I arrived I could hear women screaming. The grief here is terrible"

The strange thing though during the last three weeks, this is the second time that fire breaks out at this up market shopping mall. I think someone should get fired over this. Start with the mall Mananger!

from @dohanews and @MOI_QatarEn report no deaths/injured in Villagio incident; people being treated for smoke inhalation.

Be careful about spreading rumors since it is punishable by law.
