Students were evacuated after a fire broke out in the historic Moscow State University early on Friday, law enforcers said.
Firefighters evacuated about 500 people from the Stalin-era building, but the only injury was a Chinese woman hospitalized after being "poisoned by smoke," a law enforcement officer said.
“The fire engulfed an area of 20 sq m (215 sq ft),” on the 18th floor, but was later extinguished, he said.
An investigation is underway.
