An 80-year-old iconic Al-Ahram Studio in Cairo was ravaged by a major fire on Saturday morning, causing extensive damage and spreading to adjacent buildings. The fire, which took over five hours to extinguish, erupted just hours after the completion of filming for a Ramadan television series.
The Egyptian state news website Al-Ahram reported that the studio was destroyed, including decorations, wood, photography areas, and corridors. Videos circulating on Egyptian media sites showed the studio site and surrounding buildings fully affected by the fire.
