• Heliopolis Sheraton Hotel fire in Cairo On March 1, 1990, a fire erupted in the Nubian Tent restaurant of the six-story Heliopolis Sheraton Hotel in Cairo, Egypt. The blaze, fueled by strong winds, rapidly spread to the main building, resulting in 16 fatalities and approximately 70 injuries. Among the victims was Robert D. Cresap, a 67-year-old retired accountant from Houston. The hotel lacked fire alarms and sprinklers, which were not mandatory under Egyptian law at the time.

The incident led to increased scrutiny of fire safety regulations in Egyptian hotels. source: washingtonpost.com
