Never again

The Grenfell Tower fire – that occurred on Wednesday Jun 14 – has claimed the lives of 30 people, it is feared that the figure could rise above 100. Many injured are under treatment in the city’s major hospitals, some of them are in a critical condition. The police haven’t found out what triggered the fire.

The tragic incident, however, displayed a positive picture of the compassion of local people. When the 24-storey building caught the fire, Muslims – who were up early because of Ramazan – were the first one to reach on the scene and helped the trapped people. The incident was a tragic one and it is hoped that such incidents never happen again.
