@LondonFire The flames seem to be receding. Cannot be seen from the windows.



26 August 2016

Last week a blaze ripped through an 18 storey high rise. It took 120 firefighters to put it out. Our fire investigators believe it was caused by a faulty Indesit tumble dryer which was subject to ‘corrective action’ by the manufacturer. It was due to be seen by an engineer.

Find out if your tumble dryer is subject to a product recall or safety notice. If it is our advice is to immediately stop using it.

M20 motorway shut after lorry crash causes bridge collapse
Citaat

A footbridge has collapsed on the M20 motorway in Kent after it was hit by a lorry carrying a digger, on one of the busiest travel days of the year.

The motorway is closed between junctions 1 and 4 after the bridge fell on to the London-bound carriageway.

A motorcyclist was hurt but his injuries are not life-threatening.

Fire swept through a 28-storey skyscraper under construction in central Abu Dhabi on Tuesday, the latest in a series of at least five blazes to hit tall buildings in the United Arab Emirates over the last 18 months.

Thick black smoke billowed from the top 20 floors of the almost-completed commercial building in the UAE's capital and firefighters, overseen by helicopters, were working to put the blaze out two hours after it started, witnesses said.
