2nd collapse in a month in Alexandria, kills 4

A building collapsed in Alexandria leaving four dead and eight injured on Monday. The two-storey building is the second building to collapse in El-Gomrok neighbourhood; the first of which killed 19 a month ago. The eight injured in Monday\'s collapse were taken to Alexandria Central Hospital for medication. An eleven-storey building collapsed in mid July, as well, leaving nine dead. Egypt has seen a number of construction disasters over the years, partly owing to building violations or bad maintenance. At least 11 people were killed in Alexandria, Egypt\'s second largest city, in 2008 when a four-storey building collapsed late at night as residents slept. That came a month after a massive rockslide buried a neighbourhood at the foot of a cliff in Cairo, killing more than 100 people. From: Ahram Online
