Two weeks before 19 families will be allowed back into their homes after Dublin flats fire

19 families, incorporating 60 people, remain homeless three days after the fire due to having no electricity and water issues.

It will be two weeks before 19 families will be allowed back into their homes after a fire broke out in an electrics house.

Up to 150 residents in the Marmion Court Flats on Blackhall Street were just minutes away from a serious explosion as the electrical box is housed close to the gas storage unit which feeds all of the flats.
