It is the latest in a string of disasters to hit the Games.

Dozens of athletes have been pictured huddled outside the building.

The Australian accommodation was worst affected by the blaze, which started in the basement.

The fire caused no injuries and the team was back in the building after half an hour, a spokesman for Rio Olympics said.

Australia and other teams complained about unfinished and dirty rooms when they moved in earlier this week.

Athletes were also told they will be swimming in filthy seas full of litter, dead bodies and human poo.

And a woman gave birth this week to the first baby in Europe with abnormalities caused by the head-shrinking Zika virus, sparking fears it too may blight the Games.

The opening ceremony is on Friday.
