Sharjah24-WAM: At least seven people were killed, and six others were injured after a traditional gold mine collapsed in eastern Sudan, according to the Sudanese Mineral Resources Company on Wednesday.

The Sudan Doctors Network said the collapse occurred at a site in the Keliti area, within the Ganab and Aulib region of Red Sea State.

“Efforts are ongoing to rescue more than 25 people trapped in deep wells, amid a clear shortage of rescue and emergency equipment,” the network added.
