Dubai Tower Fire - April 2, 2017

Looks very similar to me.

Flammable building materials in the Dubai fire.

Wow, that is flippin’ scary. And fairly-new construction.

But Dubai, eh? Wow.

Building was clad in Aluminum Composite Material panels.

Some of these are fire resistive. Some are not.

I’m guessing the ones used in this particular building were not.
