A devastating building collapse in Karachi, Pakistan, has claimed at least 16 lives, with rescue teams scrambling to find eight more people feared trapped under the rubble. Heavy machinery is being used to sift through the debris as the operation enters its second day.
Editor’s Note: Building collapses like this aren’t just tragedies—they often expose deeper issues like lax construction standards or poor urban planning. In fast-growing cities like Karachi, where rapid development sometimes outpaces safety regulations, incidents like this serve as grim reminders of the human cost of negligence. The ongoing rescue efforts also highlight the bravery of emergency workers racing against time to save lives.
