One man tragically was killed in a massive blaze on Friday that ravaged a shopping mall on Moscow's northwestern outskirts.
The huge blaze erupted before the mall opened its doors to customers and engulfing the entire building of 17,000 square metres in flames.
Authorities said the blaze at the OBI store, part of the MEGA shopping mall in Khimki outside the Russian capital, was sparked by welding that apparently violated safety regulations.
