By sunrise, firefighters were still busy fighting the fire and attempting rescues on the inside.
At 04:14, police addressed the large crowd of onlookers and urgently instructed them to contact anyone they knew who was trapped in the building—if they are able to reach them via phone or Twitter—to tell them they must try to self-evacuate and not wait for the fire brigade.
By 04:44, all sides of the building had been affected.

Only two further rescues took place, with one resident being rescued at 06:05 and the last being rescued at 08:07.
Firefighters rescued all remaining residents up to the 10th floor and all but two up to the 12th floor, but none got higher than the 20th floor during this time; only two people escaped from the highest two floors.
