A three-story apartment building collapsed in the Mediterranean city of Alexandria, Egypt, killing at least six people. Rescue workers were seen using bulldozers to clear away debris, looking for any survivors trapped underneath. A local official said the bodies of three men and three women have been recovered so far.

It was not immediately clear what caused the dilapidated building to collapse.
