Rescuers in South Africa are searching for survivors after a five-storey apartment block under construction collapsed on Monday, killing five people and leaving at least 50 trapped.
Officials in the city of George, Western Cape province, say 26 people have been pulled from the wreckage and taken to hospital but there were dozens more workers on the site when the building collapsed.
The cause is under investigation. Video footage taken nearby showed a huge cloud of dust as the building fell.
At the scene on Tuesday morning, emergency workers were taking it in turns to work the small site, removing concrete blocks and debris by hand.
