A fire has broken out at a block of flats a short distance away from Grenfell Tower in west London.
London Fire Brigade said it was called at 11.39am to a report of “smoke issuing” from a building on Darfield Way.
Sky News reports that the fire is on a balcony of the 12th floor of the building.
Eight fire engines and around 60 firefighters have been sent to the scene.
Danielle Bond, who was watching on from a nearby office block, claimed the fire had spread to six floors, telling the PA news agency: “The fire is spreading upwards, don’t know what it’s like inside but flames are going up the building on one side.”
