Indonesia School Collapse: Death Toll Rises to 14; Dozens Still Missing

The Al Khoziny Islamic boarding school in Indonesia faced a devastating disaster as its structure collapsed on Monday during prayers, leading to a tragic death toll that has risen to 14 and leaving dozens of individuals still missing. The building, originally designed with two stories, was undergoing construction to add two more floors without the necessary permits. This unauthorized addition ultimately resulted in the building’s inability to support the extra weight, leading to the catastrophic collapse. Authorities revealed that the foundation of the school was not equipped to handle the additional concrete floors, which ultimately contributed to the tragic incident.
