The fire, that broke out in a flat on the fifteenth floor of a building at Oatland Towers, resulted in four people being taken to hospital.
It prompted a huge response from emergency services, with seven fire crews in attendance.
Four patients were taken to Leeds General Infirmary, the Yorkshire Ambulance Service has confirmed.
Dramatic pictures show the burnt out window of one of the flats as emergency workers cordoned off the entrance to the building.
