A major fire broke out on Sunday at an under-construction block of flats in London. The London Fire Brigade said nobody was inside the building at the time of the fire that started from the flats’ solar panels. The incident comes days after a devastating fire gutted Grenfell Tower, a 24-storey residential building in west London on June 14, killing at least 80 people. Officials said that flames engulfed the roof of the Bow Wharf building, close to Bethnal Green and Mile End area of the city. Work on the development started in late 2015 and is due to be completed this year.
