Ilford: Two taken to hospital after house explosion

Two people have been taken to hospital after an explosion at a terraced house in north-east London, the London Fire Brigade (LFB) has said.

Footage on social media showed a huge blast at the house in Ilford – which has been converted into flats – with chunks of masonry being thrown into the street.

LFB sent eight fire engines and about 60 firefighters to deal with the blaze, in Ley Street, just after 16:00 GMT.

The brigade said that at the fire’s height the first floor and loft conversion were “fully alight”. The extent of the injuries suffered by the two people taken to hospital has not been revealed.
