Poplar fire: Two in hospital after fire breaks out at tower block with Grenfell-type cladding Samuel Osborne © Provided by The Independent More than 100 firefighters and 20 fire engines were called to tackle a blaze at a 19-storey block of flats in east London. Fire engulfed parts of New Providence Wharf in Poplar, London Fire Brigade said. Two men were taken to hospital suffering from smoke inhalation, while the London Ambulance Service treated 38 adults and four children at the scene for shock and respiratory issues. Around 20 per cent of the building’s facade features ACM PE cladding panels – which were found to be a key factor in the Grenfell Tower fire in 2017.
