A fire broke out overnight at a block of flats in London - exactly one year to the day since Grenfell Tower burnt down.
Residents of the 20-storey block claim no fire alarm went off and instead were woken up by the sound of people screaming.
Eight fire engines and 58 firefighters raced to the Roma Corte complex in Elmira Street, Lewisham, south east London, at around 4.15am.
Footage from the scene shows how flames damaged an apartment on the 12th floor of the building.
London Fire Brigade (LFB) said around 150 people left the building before the fire brigade arrived and a sprinkler system "suppressed" the fire.
London Fire Brigade said it received 16 calls about the blaze, which was under control by 5.23am, while police and ambulance staff were also present.
The cause of the fire is under investigation, LFB added.
