At least two people were killed, and several others were injured after part of a residential building collapsed on Saturday in southern Cyprus, according to local media outlet Philenews.
In Germasogeia, a coastal suburb east of Limassol, a major port city, rescue teams recovered a second body from the rubble in the evening, hours after the first victim was found at around 17:30 local time (1430 GMT), the report said. Three injured people were sent to the hospital and are out of danger.
A large-scale rescue operation was launched, involving firefighters, police, civil defense, medical teams and local authorities. Heavy machinery was used to clear debris and stabilize the remaining structure.
