brink of collapse.

- Residents were seen throwing themselves and their children out of windows to avoid being

burned to death.

- More than 600 residents desperately tried to escape the flames as the fire broke out in the

middle of the night.

- Survivors claimed there was no working fire alarm, sprinklers failed and the only staircase out

was blocked.

- The London Ambulance Service said 50 people have been rushed to five different hospitals

around the capital.

- Grenfell's residents warned landlord KCTMO about 'appalling' fire safety and say refurb contributed to blaze. 'Nobody on the top three floors survived: First bodies are removed from Grenfell Tower as six are confirmed dead and dozens more are missing after huge blaze 'sparked by faulty fridge' engulfs the 27-storey tower block.

Six people are known to have died after fire engulfed Grenfell Tower in White City at 1am today but Scotland Yard says the death toll is expected to rise significantly. A community leader working to locate victims revealed that nobody who lived on the top three residential floors may have survived. He said: 'We have a list of missing people - there are so many. It's possible there are more than 50, possibly hundreds'. At the height of the blaze petrified residents were seen throwing themselves and their children out of windows to avoid being burned to death - others made ropes by tying bed sheets together or used them as makeshift parachutes. But a baby tossed from the 'ninth or 10th floor' of the building housing 600 people was caught and survived, a witness has said. The trapped waved white towels and torches to the 200 firefighters who

started storming the building within six minutes of the 999 call but many were consumed by the fire. One White City resident called Tamara said: 'Within 15 minutes the whole thing was up in flames'. Those who managed to flee said it was 'like hell on earth' inside and claimed there was no working fire alarm, sprinklers failed and the only staircase out was blocked. Grenfell's residents say their repeated warnings about 'appalling' fire safety was ignored by landlord Kensington and Chelsea Tenant Management Organisation (KCTMO), whose tower 'went up like a match'.

There are real fears that that nobody who lived on the top three residential floors may have survived the unprecedented fire.

A brave firefighter is pictured inside the burnt remains of the 27-storey building, as efforts are made to investigate what caused the blaze.

Firefighters continue to battle large scale blaze in London tower block more than 14 hours after it broke out on the fourth floor.

Many residents who gathered outside the smoldering ruins of the building said the fire had been caused by a faulty fridge in one of the flats, but the fire service told MailOnline it could not confirm the reports at this stage.
