Authorities say seven children aged between five and 15 have died following a fire at a home in Brooklyn, New York.

Two people, including a woman and a teenage girl, have also been critically injured in the blaze, according to the fire department.

The dead children are all believed to be from the same family.

A neighbour said he heard the children's mother shouting for help.

Nate Weber told the New York Post: "I heard a woman yelling 'My kids are in there! Get them out! Get them out.'"

More than 100 firefighters attended the scene in Bedford Avenue

Emergency workers were called to the property in Midwood, a leafy section of Brooklyn known for its large Orthodox Jewish population, after midnight on Saturday.

More than 100 firefighters attended the scene and brought the fire under control.

Fire Department Commissioner Daniel Nigro said a malfunctioning hotplate left on during the Sabbath may have caused a fire.
