A massive explosion brought terror to a packed block of flats in Paris tonight as a blaze swept through the building.
The fire broke out in a flat in Boulevard Macdonald, in the 19th arrondissement, just north of the Gare du Nord Eurostar hub soon after 9.30pm on Saturday night, spreading to 26 other modern apartments.
Despite the ferocity of the blaze, early indications were that 'for the moment there are no victims - nobody injured,' said Gabriel Plus, a spokesman for the Paris fire brigade.
