Building collapses in Egypt's capital killing 5, injuring 24

CAIRO: A nine-story apartment building collapsed in the Egyptian capital early on Saturday , killing at least five people and injuring about two dozen others, an official said.

Police cordoned off the area, keeping back the curious and people apparently looking for relatives in the building. Workers were seen using bulldozers to clear away debris. People inspect the area where a building was collapsed in Gesr al-Suez, Cairo, Egypt on Mar 27, 2021. Building collapses are not uncommon in Egypt, where shoddy construction is widespread in shantytowns, poor city neighborhoods and rural areas.
