 Kenyan building collapse near Nairobi kills six people The collapse of an unfinished eight-storey building in Kenya has killed six people. The structure fell on Friday morning in Syokimau on the outskirts of Nairobi. Construction workers were reportedly at the site when the building’s uppermost concrete slab gave way, bringing down part of the structure, according to a preliminary report from Nairobi City County’s emergency team. The report did not establish why the slab failed. The Kenya Red Cross initially reported that three people had been rescued and one person was reported missing. TV reports later said that five people had been pulled alive from the rubble and taken to hospital. The emergency report said the number of workers present when the building fell had not been confirmed, leaving open the possibility that others were trapped. Firefighters and specialist rescue teams were continuing to search for survivors.

 Man sentenced to 21 years for assault on Slovakian prime minister

A Slovak court sentenced Juraj Cintula to 21 years in prison for attempting to assassinate Prime Minister Robert Fico in May 2024. Cintula, 72, had faced up to 25 years but received a reduced sentence due to his age.

During the attack at a political gathering in Handlova, Cintula fired five shots at Fico, striking him in the stomach, arm, and leg. Fico, 61, survived after emergency surgery. Cintula, a poet and activist opposed to Fico’s policies on Ukraine and other issues, told authorities he intended only to injure the prime minister to prevent him from serving. Prosecutors initially charged Cintula with attempted murder, later upgrading the charges to terrorism. Fico did not attend Tuesday’s hearing but was represented by an attorney. Cintula’s lawyer said the verdict will be appealed to Slovakia’s high court.
