Fire crews have been called to a blaze at a commercial property in Newport on Tuesday afternoon.
Crews from South Wales Fire and Rescue attended a fire on Corporation Road in the Maindee area of the city.
A stretch of Corporation Road was closed from Forever Bows wedding shop to George Street Bridge.
The road remained closed for around an hour but it has since reopened.
Firefighters appear to have been dealing with a blaze at the site of the Bilash restaurant.
South Wales Fire and Rescue tweeted: "Our crews are currently in attendance at a fire on Corporation Road in Maindee Newport.
"Firefighters are at the scene using specialist equipment to extinguish the fire. Thank you for your patience."
Alex Nolan, 34, acting manager of nearby Switch Express vape shop said: “I walked out after my colleague said there’s commotion.
"Most of the street was filled with smoke and there were some people riled up about something.
“Then the fire brigade turned up within minutes.”
