A major fire breaks out in south-east London near Bermondsey and Rotherhithe, with thick smoke rising above the area. Multiple reports describe large flames and a visible plume affecting views across parts of the city, as people share footage online.
Both outlets focus on the scale of the blaze and its impact on the skyline. The Mirror frames the incident as “huge” and highlights smoke drifting over London, while the Daily Express similarly describes Bermondsey as engulfed by the fire and notes that smoke fills the sky. Neither report provides details on the cause, casualties, or the number of people affected, and the accounts mainly rely on visible effects and eyewitness-style material. Updates beyond these early observations are not included in the provided excerpts.
