People have been evacuated after a large fire involving five bungalows in south Wales.
Residents were moved to a nearby leisure centre following the fire at Hazlewood Road, Newbridge in Caerphilly county on Wednesday afternoon. There are no reports of casualties.
Councillor Adrian Hussey said some people had lost their homes and were being offered temporary accommodation.
He said residents tried to put out the fire but had to evacuate due to its severity.
“The houses were absolutely gutted. Their cars were damaged too,” he said.
“The streets around the area were all evacuated and people went to the leisure centre.”
