"It has burned through to its very core"
"It looks very bad, very very bad. I've never seen anything like this. It's just such a big fire.
"The whole building is just crumbling. It's just billowing black smoke."
'Nobody on the top three floors survived': Six dead and dozens missing
The fire that swept through a 27-storey west London tower block in just 15 minutes after a fridge exploded could be one of the worst in British history amid fears nobody on the top three floors survived.
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, who asked not to be named, 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'.
Police would not confirm how many people are unaccounted for because the building is still on fire 12 hours after it started.
