Firefighters from the Civil Protection Department on Wednesday morning put out a fire in a sixth-floor apartment in Qawra.

The department said it deployed three fire engines, including one equipped with a  turntable ladder.

The fire was controlled in a short time.

No one was injured but a cat which was rescued from the property succumbed to injuries despite efforts to save it.
