 U.S equipment, experts arrive at Kenya Ebola facility despite court order, protests Around 20 flights carrying medical equipment and specialist staff have landed at a base in Kenya where the U.S. ​government is continuing to build an Ebola quarantine facility despite protests and Kenyan court orders blocking it, according to flight data and officials. At least two ‌people have been killed in protests in the central Kenyan town of Nanyuki, home to the Kenyan air force base where the U.S. military is building a 50-bed unit for Americans who might be exposed to the virus, which has infected hundreds in Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda.

THREE KILLED, THREE INJURED AFTER OVERPASS UNDER DEMOLITION COLLAPSES IN SEOUL KOREA. (PHOTO).


 Three killed, three injured after overpass under demolition collapses in Seoul Korea


A partial collapse of an aging overpass under demolition in Seoul killed three people and injured three others on Tuesday, officials said, in an accident that also disrupted nearby rail service.

Sections of the Seosomun Overpass gave way around 2:32 p.m., sending concrete and construction debris crashing to the ground. Two men in their 50s and 60s were initially killed at the scene, and a third victim later died from injuries, bringing the death toll to three.

Authorities said 12 workers were deployed to the site, and six were able to evacuate safely before or during the collapse. Officials believe a supporting structure may have failed shortly after safety inspections began earlier in the afternoon.

Falling debris also struck a nearby railway line, forcing the suspension of train operations between Seoul Station and Sinchon Station while emergency crews responded and secured the area. The overpass had been scheduled for full demolition by early next month.

Top government officials ordered a full investigation into the cause of the collapse and called for urgent measures to prevent similar accidents. Emergency response teams were directed to maximize rescue and medical efforts, while authorities worked to identify hospitals capable of receiving the injured and minimize further loss of life.

Officials also emphasized the need to protect rescue personnel and restrict access to the site as recovery operations continued.
