Thirty people are in hospital and there are fears that more may be unaccounted for after a huge fire raged through the night at a west London tower block.
Firefighters are still tackling the blaze at Grenfell Tower in north Kensington, where hundreds of people are thought to live.
Eyewitnesses reported seeing people trapped inside their homes.
The BBC's Andy Moore said the whole 24-storey block had been alight and there were fears the building might collapse.
Eyewitnesses said they saw lights - thought to be mobile phones or torches - flashing at the top of the block of flats, and trapped residents coming to their windows.
The Met Police has set up an emergency number on 0800 0961 233 for anyone concerned about friends or family.
The #GrenfellTower fire was largely extinguished by 5 a.m. local time, but the building is still smoldering https://t.co/d9438A6Enb pic.twitter.com/cqk8iMPauL
