CAIRO: Three members of one family were killed on Monday when their two-storey house in a southern Egyptian village collapsed, the official MENA news agency reported.
A 27-year-old woman and two of her children died after the mud brick house in Eneibas village caved in.
The woman’s husband, two other children and her brother-in-law were rescued and were being treated for injuries, MENA said.
Such incidents are relatively frequent in Egypt where building regulations are often flouted and additional floors added without permission.
In February, seven people were killed in two separate cases of houses collapsing. -AFP
