A girl's school in Ras Al Khaimah was evacuated on Thursday morning after air-conditioning vents starting emitting smoke.
Students reportedly smelled smoke coming from the air conditioning units and began hyperventilating at the primary school in Al Dhait area.
Ras Al Khaimah's Civil Defence units helped to safely evacuate the 730 girls from the building.     
Brigadier Mohammed Abdullah Al Zaabi, Director of the Department of Civil Defense in Ras Al Khaimah, said: "A group of workers had been burning construction materials - inside a building that is currently under construction - behind the school."
"Wind had blown the smoke into the ventilation system and thus it was transferred via air ducts to the school's air conditioners," he added.
