A house in Brooklyn fell into a construction site, burying people in the rubble.
In New York, a three-story building collapsed directly into a pit dug nearby. According to ABC News and the emergency services, the developer has previously registered deficiencies in compliance with regulations and the safety of nearby buildings.
At least two civilians became victims of the state of emergency. 19 people were injured, including seven minors. Several patients are fighting for life in intensive care. The rescue mission is difficult due to the threat of new collapses - the neighboring building was partially destroyed, the facade was torn off.
