The report will examine how the London tower block came to be in a condition that allowed the fire to spread, killing 72 people.
On the night of the fire, Munira Mahmud woke up to see her father-in-law looking through the window of their flat on the fifth floor of Grenfell Tower. They could hear people 'screaming and shouting: ‘Fire, fire, get down!‘” she tells the BBC’s Grenfell: Building a Disaster podcast. The family fled and gathered outside near the leisure centre opposite. “That’s when I turned around and it was bad.
” In just 18 minutes, the fire had climbed 19 floors to reach the top of the tower. She realised her best friend, Rania Ibrahim - who lived on floor 23, the highest level - was still inside. Munira phoned her and begged her to come down, but Rania replied: “It’s not possible.” Earlier, Rania had been advised by emergency call handlers to stay in her flat. By now the tower's hallways and stairwells were thick with black smoke. She was coughing.
