The fire started in one of the houses near the middle of the terraced house, where a total of nine terraced houses are included.
- In the house where it started to burn, there were two adults and three children who were taken to hospital with unclear damage, says Micael Jansson, operations manager at Södertörn's fire service.
Another 27 people have been evacuated to a collection point near the terraced house, the rescue service states.
- We have tried to put out the fire as much as possible, but it is difficult with townhouse fires, the fire can spread through the winds.
But we are working too hard to stop the fire, says Micael Jansson.
Correction: An earlier version of the article stated that the fire was in Tyresö. It's in Nacka.
