I think it’s gone. Fires getting worse. Nothing can be done.

"The church also houses numerous treasures belonging to figures including the French King Louis IX, or Saint Louis the architect Viollet-Le-Duc and Pope John-Paul II.
The most precious treasure, the Crown of Thorns, is housed in Notre Dame'sm one of three holy artifacts along with the True Cross and one of the Holy Nails from the crucifixion."
Apparently.

Looks bad.
York Minster had a bad fire many years ago, but they did manage to rebuild the damaged parts.
Hopefully the main structure can be saved.

Why don't they just use flying water tankers to put it out?

Never let a good opportunity go to waste, they'll probably blame it on a yellow vest protester and declare them a terrorist group.

I saw that tweet. Joking aside, would that not be a viable option with a large fire like this?
