Tanzania Building Collapse: Rescuers Battle to Save Trapped Survivors
Rescue teams in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, have established contact with people trapped in the debris of a collapsed four-storey building in the Kariakoo market area, providing them with water, glucose, and oxygen. Thirteen people have died, while 84 have been rescued. Authorities, led by the prime minister, are conducting a thorough inspection of buildings in the area, and investigations into the collapse will begin after rescue operations conclude. The cause of the collapse remains unknown, but building regulation enforcement is a concern in the rapidly growing city.
