An heroic mother sacrificed her life to save her children by mustering all her strength to throw them from a burning tower block.
She threw the children out then collapsed over the window ledge, while the fire raged behind her.
The mum and two children had raced to the window as the flames and smoke took hold of their fifth storey home.
Realising she had little time left, the brave woman lifted her nine-year-old son, and dropped him out of the window.
