Photos: Firefighters make heroic efforts to save people from Tehran fire

IFP - A huge fire which occurred at 21-storey Paramis Tower in Tehrans 22nd District Sunday afternoon left nobody dead but 87 people injured, Irans Emergency Medical Services said.

The spokesman for Tehran Fire Department Jalal Maleki said the blaze was quickly extinguished, thanks to the proximity of the high-rise to the regions fire station that allowed firefighters to reach the location in only 2.5 minutes.



Concurrent with efforts to put out the fire, a group of firefighters were busy directing trapped residents to escape through toxic smoke, Maleki said, as reported by ISNA.

The fire is suspected to be caused by sparks of the buildings power lines.

Videos on social media showed flames outside of some windows and thick smoke belching from the tower.

What follows are ISNAs photos of the rescue efforts made by the firefighters:
