Gaza building collapse details
A residential building in Gaza, consisting of six floors and located in the industrial area, collapsed completely early this morning. Rescue efforts are hampered by difficult conditions due to a shortage of equipment and support. The collapse resulted in 16 deaths and 25 injuries, with approximately 100 people trapped beneath the rubble. The building, which was filled with displaced individuals, had previously sustained damage during earlier Israeli shelling. It is part of widespread destruction where about 81% of the buildings in the Gaza Strip have been damaged as a result of ongoing war and continuous devastation. Rescue teams are currently working to extract those trapped, but challenging field conditions and a lack of heavy equipment are hindering their efforts. Authorities warn of the potential collapse of hundreds of damaged buildings, amid ongoing shortages of medical and relief resources to confront the extensive disaster.
