London fire: All samples from UK high-rise towers fail fire safety testsAL JAZEERA All high-rise buildings tested so far in the UK have failed fire safety tests. The list of high-rise apartment towers in Britain that have failed fire safety tests has grown to 60, revealing the mounting challenge the UK government faces in the aftermath of London's Grenfell Tower fire tragedy. PETER NICHOLLS/REUTERS At least 79 people are presumed to have died in the Grenfell Tower fire in London, UK. The number of buildings at risk is likely to grow as owners and local officials provide more samples for safety tests. The national testing was ordered after an inferno engulfed Grenfell Tower in west London on June 14.
