A fire broke out at a wharf as piles of timber reportedly caught flame in the port's storage area in Chongqing, China.

Footage shows the blaze ripping through the Foeryan Wharf while columns of smoke drifted up from the facility in Banan district on August 23 morning.

Banan officials said that they are 'exerting all efforts' to put out the fire, and claimed there were no casualties reported.

Authorities are still investigating the cause of the incident.

Officers have also been battling wildfires, reportedly triggered by intense heatwaves, in Chongqing since August 17.
