Building Collapse in Gaza Kills 14, Dozens Missing
Search and rescue operations are underway in western Gaza City after a residential building collapsed early Wednesday, killing at least 14 people and leaving dozens missing. The six-story "Al-Saada" building, which housed displaced families and adjacent tents, crumbled in the industrial area. Civil defense teams, working with municipal crews since midnight, are attempting to free individuals trapped under the rubble. Earlier reports indicated 8 deaths and dozens of injuries, with approximately 60 people unaccounted for or wounded.
Sources suggest the building had sustained damage from a previous bombing. The exact cause of the collapse is still under investigation, but the prior damage is considered a contributing factor. The number of casualties is expected to rise as rescue efforts continue.
