A building housing students collapsed in New Delhi, India, resulting in at least six to seven confirmed fatalities. Rescuers are currently searching through the debris for survivors, with several others reported injured following the incident. The city-state's chief minister confirmed the collapse occurred on Monday.
Building collapses are a known hazard in India, particularly during the monsoon season between June and September. Heavy and prolonged rainfall during this period is frequently cited as a factor that weakens older structures, increasing the risk of such incidents.
