Emergency crews are dealing with a fire that has broken out at an oil storage tank on an island off the southern coast of Singapore.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said in a Facebook post at around 6.30pm local time that it had been called out to a fire at Palau Busing.
No injuries have been reported in the incident.
The state’s Nationmal Environment Agency is monitoring the region’s air quality following the blaze.
It said in a statement: “We are monitoring the air quality closely, especially in the southwestern region of Singapore. The prevailing winds are currently blowing from the northeast and the air quality has remained in the Good to Moderate range, with no spikes in the PM2.5, sulphur dioxide and other air pollutant levels.
“We will provide updates should there be changes in the air quality situation. “
