A mother trapped on the 24th floor of the Grenfell tower recorded a harrowing Facebook live video as she and her two young children desperately tried to escape.
Rania Ibrham, 30, was in her flat when the raging fire engulfed the housing block in London in the early hours.
In the distressing clip, she can be heard screaming for help as she tries to find a way out of the
burning building.
Her grief stricken friends told MailOnline they were still anxiously waiting for news on Rania and her children, aged three and five, who have not been seen since her phone cut out.
Rania's friend Suhair Sharif, 55, who lives in Edgware Road, rushed to the scene following the disaster.
She told MailOnline: 'Rania lived with her husband and children on the 24th floor.
'Her husband was in Egypt but he flew back as soon as he heard the news.
'Rania made it down to the floor below to my other friend's flat, but Rania, her two children and my friends on the 23rd floor are all still missing.
'In the video we just heard her saying 'oh my god', but she carried on filming despite the fire. We have not heard from her since the video ended.'
Mrs Sharif added: 'We didn't see any casualties coming out, it is as if they just left them in there to die. One man was told to stay in his flat by police but he refused and escaped with his wife and children.'
Rania also sent a heartbreaking Snapchat message to another friend at 2.45am in which she said in Arabic, 'forgive me everyone, goodbye'.
