Description

On the hottest day ever in the UK, dozens of people in Wennington in east London had to flee their homes as fires, caused by the extreme heat, swept through their neighbourhood. Smoke billowed into the air as more than 100 firefighters tried to control the blazes. Seventeen homes were destroyed. As officials lifted cordons in the area, Sky News correspondent Ivor Bennett was shown around Wennington and met some of those who lost their homes. On the Sky News Daily, he tells Leah Boleto about the devastation and what residents are planning to do now.
