Firefighters early on Wednesday morning rescued two people from an apartment which was on fire in Buġibba.

The Civil Protection Department was alerted at 3.30am and deployed fire-fighters from Xemxija Fire Station.

They quickly put out the blaze and rescued the startled tenants, who, the department said, were unaware of the fire raging inside their flat.

No one was hurt but an ambulance team assessed the victims for smoke inhalation.
