Death toll rises after huge fire in Valencia apartment blocks

[Still Waters]

Spanish officials say at least ten people are dead, media reports say 14 injured after fire engulfed a high-rise apartment complex

Firefighters were seen rescuing people from balconies, using cranes to reach those trapped on high floors

Although the building is still very hot, firefighters have been able to enter the lower floors and begin searching for the missing people

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has visited the scene and promised all possible aid to the city and its region

There are fears that highly flammable cladding on the building's facade may have helped the fire spread - as in the 2017 tragedy at London's Grenfell Tower
