More than eight fire engines and 40 firefighters responded to a fire which consumed a third floor flat and roof Bethnal Green, London, on June 24.

The fire came amid increased fears over fire safety in apartment buildings in the UK’s capital. A day before, Camden Council evacuated residents from the Chalcots estate in north-west London, after four flats were identified as having similar, flammable cladding to that of Grenfell Tower.
