A building in Egypt’s Nile Delta partially collapsed following a fire that broke out on Friday at dawn, killing at least eight people and injuring 29 others, according to officials. An electrical short circuit caused a boiler to explode and a fire to break out on the second floor of a dye business in El-Mahalla city, which is known for textile manufacturing, in Gharbia province. That led to the partial collapse of the building, said the Governor’s media office in a statement.
