Dozens missing in London high-rise fire assumed to be dead

London police say 58 people who were in Grenfell♏ Tower are still mꦓissing and assumed to be dead.

Police Commander Stuar✤t Cundy said Saturday that this number, which was based on reports from the public, may rise. He says it will take weeks or longer to recover and identify all the dead ཧin the public housing block that was devastated by a fire early Wednesday.

He said there may have bee🔯n people in the tower that police are not aware of, which would add to the death toll.

He says the search for remains had🐼 been pau👍sed because of safety concerns but has resumed. Emergency workers have reached the top of the 24-story tower.

Cundy promised an exhausting investigation into the tragedy. He says “my heart goes out to those affected.”
