A block housing garment factories and shops collapsed in Bangladesh on Wednesday, killing 147 people and injuring more than a thousand, officials said. Firefighters and troops dug frantically through the rubble at the eight-storey Rana Plaza building in Savar, 30 km (20 miles) outside Dhaka. Television showed young women workers, some apparently semi-conscious, being pulled out. [Photo/Sina]
