A fire has broken out in a farm in Härjedalen municipality. The premises house both offices and a workshop with gas containers, and due to the risk of explosion, the rescue service will let the building burn down, writes Aftonbladet.

It's a two-story building that is fully ablaze, says alarm and control operator Björn Nilsson to the newspaper.

Several units from both Swedish and Norwegian rescue services are on site, and highway 84, which passes by the farm, is closed and is expected to remain so until lunchtime on Monday, reports Östersunds-Posten.

No people have been injured and there is no suspicion of crime at present.

The alarm came in at 07:50 on Sunday.
