PRESS TV:

Some 58 people are now feared dead in the Grenfell Tower fire in west London, according to British police.

“Sadly at this time, there are 58 people who we have been told were in Grenfell Tower on the night that are missing and therefore sadly I have to assume that they are dead,” Police Commander Stuart Cundy told reporters on Friday, adding that the figure could change.

The confirmed death toll in the fire has risen to 30. The police chief said the figure of 58 included that toll given earlier.
