London Heathrow Airport warehouse hit by fire
It is thought a forklift truck caught fire at the Servisair Warehouse and a building is now alight at the west London airport.
No-one is believed to have been hurt but witnesses report a small number of explosions, probably from gas cylinders on the vehicle.
London Fire Brigade (LFB) was called at 1315 BST. Some 20 fire engines and 100 firefighters are at the scene.
Firefighters were scrambled from stations near Heathrow to supplement the small force based at the airport.
An LFB spokesman said: "It is a sizeable fire. It is in a warehouse. I don't know what the contents are at the minute.
"The cause will be investigated. We have no reports of injuries at this stage."
