60 dead in the FALL of the Congo


At least 60 miners were killed when the trench they were working in collapsed in a mine in northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), said a UN-backed radio station.The workers were 100 meters underground when the accident occurred.
The area is rich in tin and gold, and hundreds of thousands of people living from working in mines where safety regulations basically do not exist and accidents are common.
