About 100 tourists have been evacuated from one of Cambodia's biggest hotels and casinos, after a fire broke out at a construction site inside the complex in Phnom Penh.
Wood being used for remodelling the NagaCorp hotel caught fire, sparking a blaze in a district of the city crowded with government offices, including the parliament and foreign ministry.
About 50 firefighters and volunteers worked for three hours to douse the blaze.
The damage was contained to one part of the hotel, and no injuries were reported, although the hotel evacuated all its guests.
The NagaCorp hotel and casino attracts hundreds of tourists every day, mainly from Malaysia, Singapore and South Korea.
