A rescue mission is under way to find survivors after a tower block in Brazil collapsed during a huge fire.
One person has been confirmed dead and three more are missing following the blaze in Sao Paulo. The tower block was occupied by about 150 rough sleepers and a number of people are thought to be trapped in the rubble, authorities said. Firefighters were alerted at 1.30am local time (5.30am in the UK).
More than 170 firefighters attended the scene, along with a civil defence response team and the army. Screams for help were heard from the top floor of the building, according to reports from the scene.
