China: 22 people die in residential house collapse in Zhejiang Province

Six survivors were hospitalised. They are in stable conditions. One of the survivors is a young girl who was protected by the bodies of her parents, who were killed in the collapse, the report said. The cause of the disaster is under investigation.

Rescuers said the collapsed buildings were built by villagers. Five adjacent houses built in the 1970s remain standing, but rescuers are demolishing them to avoid secondary disasters.
