Gaza building collapse kills 8, missing 60
A six-story deteriorated building in Gaza's west has exploded, resulting in the deaths of eight people, including children, and the arrest of over 60 missing individuals, with 15 others injured. The building, which housed displaced persons, collapsed due to repeated Israeli shelling during the war, causing significant damage to many neighboring homes and causing cracks in their structures. Rescue efforts are hampered by a lack of necessary equipment, as volunteers and the Gaza Municipality are working to find the missing among the rubble, amid fears that the death toll could rise due to the deteriorating condition of the damaged buildings. Despite a ceasefire agreement that went into effect in October, Gaza continues to face ongoing bombardment, and Israel controls more than 60% of the strip’s territory.
