Egypt: 18 dead as building in Cairo collapses

Eighteen people died and more than 20 were injured on Saturday when a 10-story building in eastern Cairo collapsed.

Egypt was already stricken with grief after a train collision on Friday in which at least 19 people were killed.

Civil defense workers rushed to the scene of Saturday’s building collapse in the Gesr Suez district near Heliopolis. As they searched the rubble, there were fears that the death toll could rise.
