Gaza building collapse causes 12 deaths
A disaster involving the collapse of a residential building in western Gaza has resulted in the martyrdom of 12 Palestinians, including children, and the injury of 13 others, with around 100 people still missing beneath the rubble. The six-story building collapsed early Wednesday morning onto its residents and some nearby tents, under difficult field conditions, as rescue teams continue searching for survivors. Civil Defense warned of the risks posed by the potential collapse of nearly 2,000 other buildings in the Gaza Strip, especially with winter approaching, which could worsen the incidents. They called on the international community to provide the necessary equipment for rescue operations and to rehabilitate the threatened buildings. Officials also urged allowing the entry of construction materials, considering that the ongoing blockade prevents this and puts the lives of residents at further risk.
