A mum who shared a harrowing broadcast from inside the Grenfell Tower blaze on Facebook Live is still missing along with her two young daughters.
Rania Ibrham, 30, livestreamed her battle to escape the inferno in bid for help as she and her children were stuck at the top of the tower .
The mum-of-two has not been seen or heard from since she shared the video from her flat on the 23rd floor at about 1.40am on Wednesday - minutes after the fire broke out.
Friend Rahmana Rashid posted a picture of the young mother and two young girls on Facebook.
She wrote: "Rania Ibrham my friend is missing from the grenfill tower, if you have seen her or have any news on her pls contact me."

Another friend, named only as Maseen, told the MailOnline: "My friend, Ranya Ibrahim, lives on the top floor with her two children who are just three and five years old."
"I received a Snapchat video from Ranya at 3am just after the fire started and I haven't heard from her since," she added.
"She lives on the top floor and her husband was not home because he is on holiday."
In one part of the footage as they film police and fire crews arriving down below, a desperate woman, believed to be a friend, yells out: "We're stuck on the 23rd floor!
"Hello! There's too many people stuck upstairs."
The footage includes a section with a woman's voice praying as they desperately tried to get to safety.
Amid noises of banging doors in the complex, the group are trapped in their apartment as they frantically work out how they will escape.
They are frantically debating if they should open the front door and if they will be able to breathe with the thick smoke.
There is a suggestion to see if people are outside who may need help.
A female voice, believed to be a friend, says: "You are not going to be able to breathe.
"You're children are not going to be able to breathe.
The same female voice says: "Listen you have your children.
"Standing near the door, the smoke is not going to help you, yeah? Where's your husband?"
They appear to open their front door to see thick smoke and help people and let them in.
A female voice, believed to be Rania, calls out: "Hello? Come here!"
"Hello? hello? Come! Come! Quick! Quick!"
However, a male voice urgently says "come in... the smoke is coming".
A female voice says: "But the people are outside!"
Towards the end of the footage, which lasts 6 minutes and 33 seconds, the people film over a balcony down to the ground below as a female says police are telling to them get out.
There are blue flashing lights as a woman prays and a emergency services crew can be heard below.
The people are asking how they are going to get out.
As they can see police and fire crews arriving, a woman yells out: "We're stuck on the 23rd floor!
"Hello!
"There's too many people stuck upstairs."
The video was posted at about 1.40am as the fire was in its early stages after being reported at 12.54am.
Authorities have confirmed 12 people died in the blaze while 78 were injured, 18 of whom were in a critical condition.
The death toll was expected to increase as emergency service crews had still not been able to do a full thorough search of the building.
There are fears over the integrity of the high rise, although fire crews had managed to reach the top floor today.
Drones were also being used to examine upper floors of the structure.
