President Donald Trump was quick to tweet out about the fire consuming parts of the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris on Monday afternoon.
“So horrible to watch the massive fire at Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. Perhaps flying water tankers could be used to put it out. Must act quickly!” Trump wrote.
It remains unclear how the building caught fire or how long the blaze has gone on for, but Paris Police confirmed in a tweet that emergency responders were on scene and urged people to stay away from the area.
The New York Times spoke to cathedral spokesperson André Finot, who said the fire was started in the spire of the cathedral. The cathedral is one of Paris’s most famous monuments and has been standing for centuries.
