Residents have been forced to flee a London tower block where fire has engulfed a 14th-floor flat.
Flames could be seen spreading through the block and more than 65 members of the public called 999.
Twelve fire engines and around 80 firefighters rushed to tackle the blaze in Hindmarsh Close in Shadwell, east London.
London Fire Brigade said most of the 14th-floor flat in a 24-storey block of flats was alight, and a 64-metre turntable ladder was called to help fight the flames from height.
The smoke and flames could be seen from miles away.
There were no immediate reports of any injuries, but people in the area were advised to keep windows and doors closed.
Roads in the area were closed after people raised the alarm at 12.16 on Wednesday.
Crews from Shadwell, Whitechapel, Shoreditch, Dockhead, Millwall and surrounding fire stations were at the scene.
The cause of the fire was being investigated, the brigade said.
