Emergency responders are giving an update on the West Midlands wildfires, which ripped through houses and left 25 people hospitalised, including six firefighters.
Fires have centred on Stourbridge, Stoke-on-Trent, Warstock and Cannock Chase.
Many suffered from smoke inhalation and heat exhaustion as a hundred firefighters were sent to tackle the blaze in Stourbridge last night, which was later declared as a major incident by West Midlands Fire and Rescue.
The Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, visited the area on Friday and pledged his support for the fire and rescue services in the region, calling the situation "awful".
