Adeleis showing her support for the victims of the 2017Grenfell Tower disasterin London, which killed 72.
“Today marks four years since the Grenfell Tower fire, and still there are so many unanswered questions,” the “Hello” singer says in a YouTube video commemorating the fourth anniversary of the apartment block tragedy, which began as a small kitchen fire in the early hours of June 14, 2017, and went on to engulf the entire 24-story building.

A British government public inquiry launched on Sept. 14, 2017, is yet to reach any conclusions despite months of expert testimony.
“Still the trial [inquiry] is taking way too long, and still no one has been held accountable for that night’s events,” adds Adele in theYouTube video.
“And yet, Grenfell United is still out here, fighting tirelessly for the justice and for the change that not only they deserve, that their community deserve, but that the whole country deserves.”
“And for that, I’d like to thank you,” she continues. “Thank you for putting your pain aside for all of these years to fight the fight. I can’t imagine the kind of personal consequences that has on you.
“I really hope that this time next year, you will have the answers that you need to finally, finally be able to breathe together. I love you. I’ll see you soon. Stay strong. We’re all with you.”
