Seven people were killed when a residential building collapsed on Wednesday in the historic Islamic quarter of Cairo, Egypt. Rescue workers pulled seven corpses from the rubble in the Darb el-Ahmar area. An eighth person was rescued, suffering from moderate to severe fractures. Prosecutors were informed to carry out the investigation immediately. Building collapses are common in Egypt because of lax building standards and poor maintenance.
I think that these buildings should be modified immediately so that the Egyptians can be ensured of their safety and well-being. This is because the buildings are extremely dangerous and is almost an equivalent to a time-bomb if the incident is not handled properly.
