A catastrophic collapse at the Al Khoziny Islamic boarding school in Sidoarjo, East Java, has left 91 students missing and 3 confirmed dead, after a structure gave way during afternoon prayers. Rescue teams continue to dig through unstable concrete, cautiously withholding heavy machinery to avoid triggering further collapse. At least six trapped survivors have shown signs of life, with supplies of oxygen, food and water being delivered through narrow gaps. Authorities point to unauthorized upper-floor construction and inadequate foundational support in the old building as likely causes.
