Dozens of firefighters are battling a large blaze inside a flat at a tower block in Mile End, east London.
Photos and video clips posted on social media show flames shooting out of windows and a balcony on the 12th floor of Grafton House.
Smoke is billowing up one side of the 22-storey high-rise, where eight fire engines and 58 firefighters are on scene.
More than 80 calls to 999 were placed after the fire broke out at about 12.30pm, belching a huge plume of smoke visible from miles away.
