The fire broke out Wednesday night at Hyper Mall, just five days after it opened, and the cause remains unknown. Governor Mohammed al-Miyahi said ambulances continued to transport victims until dawn. Video footage shows huge flames engulfing the five-story building, and authorities have filed a lawsuit against the mall's owner.
