At least 9 people have died in the fire in Valencia, Spain. The fire started in an apartment on the seventh floor of a tower block.

All experts agree that the construction materials of the exterior façade were what caused the rapid spread of the flames. The wind that was blowing in the city at the time the fire broke out sneaks through an air chamber that was left in this type of construction between the covering and the wall. When the wind enters it, the façaded itself acts as a fan, which spreads the fire virulently in all directions.
