Indonesia School Collapse Death Toll Rises to 37, Still Missing 27 Students

The death count from an Indonesian school collapse rose to 37 today, as rescuers recovered more victims buried under the rubble. The national search and rescue agency said efforts continued for a seventh day to search for the bodies of 27 students still declared missing – mostly teenage boys from the ages of 13 to 19 – trapped under the rubble.

Part of the multi-storey building on Indonesia’s Java island suddenly collapsed on Monday as students gathered for afternoon prayers.
