Two dead and dozens injured. In New York, a house collapsed into the pit of a neighboring construction site.
Many of the victims are seriously injured, doctors are fighting for their lives. Search and rescue operations are ongoing, involving about 300 people. It is reported that during the collapse, both residents of the building (including seven children) and builders were under the rubble.
New York authorities reported that excavation work was carried out in a wasteland near the collapsed building. How many people may be under the rubble is unknown. At the same time, part of the building survived, there is a high probability of its secondary collapse. All this complicates the rescue operation, which, according to preliminary calculations, will last at least two days.
