Five-year-old Isaac Paulos has been formally identified as one of the youngest victims of the Grenfell Tower fire.

His family said they will forever miss their “kind, energetic and generous little boy”.

Isaac, who lived with his family on the 18th floor, was found on the 13th, Westminster Coroner’s Court was told.

The boy, who vanished in the dense smoke as his family attempted to escape the blaze, choked to death on fumes from the fire.

The deadly blaze claimed at least 79 lives.

In a statement, his parents said: “Isaac our beloved son was taken from us when he was only five-years-old.

“We will all miss our kind, energetic, generous little boy. He was such a good boy who was loved by his friends and family.

“We will miss him forever, but we know God is looking after him now and that he is safe in heaven.”
