Proceed to your left and press the action key. This will allow your main character to grab a nearby rope. Climb up a little and start swinging on the rope. Your objective will be to let go of the rope at the appropriate time. You can do this by pressing the... PrintScreen key! Your task here will be to land on the left ledge. Team up with one of the survivors.
Start following your new ally. Thankfully, you won't have to worry about being attacked by anyone and even if you move too far to the left, you'll have a chance to climb back up. This ledge is going to collapse in a few seconds and you'll find yourself in a very awkward position (screen). DON'T let go. Instead, start moving right.
A huge explosion is going to take place below you. As a result, some of the vehicles are going to be destroyed and one of the wrecks will fly over here (screen). Remain where you are and wait for it to pass by. Keep moving right and climb up once you've reached the end. Press the SPACE key to perform a single jump and you'll automatically grab onto a new ledge.
This time you'll be presented with a different challenge. Your task here will be to avoid objects falling down from higher floors. Thankfully, it's a very easy task, because you may use two large statues (screen) for cover. Wait for the situation to calm down and start moving left. You will only have to watch out for smaller objects along the way. It's going to be much easier.
Wait for the large balcony to be completely destroyed. The balcony is located next to the left statue. Once this has occurred, continue moving left. You will have to press the release button and you'll end up standing on a lower balcony. After that, grab a new rope. You will have to release the rope and it can be done in two different ways - you can start climbing (screen) or you can press the SPACE key at least once. Either way, you will have to deal with this small obstacle.
Start swinging on the rope. Obviously you will have to reach a new platform (screen) by performing a successful and precise jump. Once you've arrived at your new destination, grab onto a ledge and start moving left. You can't make any stops here, because the wall will start moving, separating itself from the rest of the building.
Your objective here will be to reach a new balcony (screen) as soon as possible. Let go of the ledge and move to the left quickly. Wait for a large part of the wall to leave an opening behind. You may enter the building. Once this is done, wait for the camera to make a sweep of the area.
Ignore an information about the possibility of grabbing a rope, because you will have to make some preparations in the first place. Head down to a lower level and find a new fire extinguisher. Pick up this object and place it on a small platform (screen). Turn around and go back to the upper floor by climbing up twice.
You may now focus on grabbing the rope. Obviously you will have to start running towards it. Press the jump key at the last moment. As for the rope itself, look at my screen if you can't find it on your own. If you've placed the extinguisher correctly, it will be transported to this level. Go back up once again.
Head on to the fire extinguisher and pick it up. Once this is done, get closer to the flames and start using the extinguisher to put out the fire. Obviously you will have to switch to FPP view in order to use this object. Once the area is clear, get rid of the fire extinguisher and climb up to the upper floor (screen). Proceed to your left and exit the building.
Once you've left the building, you will have to focus on grabbing a new rope. Start moving towards the upper floors. You may ignore one of the civilians. Instead, avoid other large objects which you'll eventually see flying your way. Use the side movement keys (screen). Thankfully, they're very easy to spot and you'll have plenty of time to dodge them.
Eventually you should find yourself near a large balcony. I guess it won't come as a surprise that you must start swinging and let go of the rope at the appropriate moment (screen). Enter the building right away.
