About our Grenfell Tower fire news

Latest news on the Grenfell Tower fire, a devastating high-rise fire that occurred in London on 14 June 2017, resulting in 72 deaths and 70 injuries. The fire was caused by an electrical fault in a refrigerator and spread rapidly due to the building's dangerously combustible cladding. The response to the fire involved over 250 firefighters and 100 ambulance crews. The fire has led to multiple investigations and an independent review of building regulations and fire safety, as well as the replacement of cladding on similar buildings. The Grenfell Tower Inquiry is ongoing and has been investigating the causes of the fire and the broader issues related to it.
