Whats with all these fires?

Think what's needed is a strict adherence to buiding codes especially with regards to fire safety

yesterday there was a huge fire, today 1 petrol station's roof collapsed maybe due to the underground tanker explosion, correct? So what's happening now are just accidents, not a danger for national security. And this coming November will be the Civil Defense exhibition, I just hope people living in Qatar will live safely by the watchful eyes of Qatar's security force.

'accidents' of the same genre in a manner of such disturbingly quick succession does bring in a little mental discomfort.... :S

affirmative, it was a gas explosion...and its a total mess (sandals all around, glass broken from nearby stores, cars and bus are also damaged.).

I guess that would explain the roof falling down then.
