BBC Europe – London fire: Several killed as huge tower block engulfed. Several people have died and more than 50 are in hospital after a huge fire raged through the night at a west London tower block, a fire chief says. Eyewitnesses said they saw people trapped inside the burning Grenfell Tower, in north Kensington, screaming for help, and shouting for their children to be saved. Firefighters, still at the scene, rescued “large numbers” of residents. The 24-storey block, now smoking ruins, looks at risk of collapsing.
