Air operations in Japan were partly disrupted on Friday after a fire broke out near an airport in the capital Tokyo, according to local media.

The incident occurred at a factory near Haneda airport in Tokyo, the Kyodo news agency reported.

No injuries have been reported so far, while the incident caused delays to some flights, local authorities said.

The blaze is believed to have started when a conveyor belt caught fire and appears to have burned the second floor of the four-story building.

Over 90 fire engines were deployed to the factory to combat the fire, which showed no signs of subsiding by 8 pm local time (1100 GMT), according to the Japanese public broadcaster NHK.
