NewzA deadly building collapse has killed at least 12 people in Gaza City on 16 September, according to Shifa Hospital, after a multi-storey building housing displaced families came down. A devastating incident occurred overnight in Gaza City, where a six-storey apartment building crumbled, leaving at least ten Palestinians, including young children, dead. The aftermath has led to fears that numerous individuals may still be trapped beneath the debris.
Rescue teams are actively searching for survivors and recovering bodies, amid reports that the building had been weakened by earlier Israeli attacks. GAZA CITY: Rescuers searched on Wednesday for dozens of people missing after an apartment block in Gaza collapsed, killing at least 20 people including five children, authorities in the war-torn enclave said. Gaza's civil defence agency said the six-storey building in the Tal al-Hawa area was home to people displaced by the war with Israel, and collapsed onto residentials and nearby tents.
Agency spokesman Mahmoud Basal told AFP the building had sustained structural damage from Israeli strikes.
