From AFP via Channel News Asia:
Six construction workers were buried when a subway tunnel being built for the 2008 Beijing Olympics collapsed, and rescuers give them little chance of survival, China’s state press reported Thursday.
The accident early Wednesday occurred in Beijing’s Haidian university district on the No 10 subway line, the People’s Daily reported on its website.
The line crosses northern Beijing and will link up to the Olympic Village when it is finished in 2008. Rescue efforts were continuing but so far the missing workers have not been traced, the report said.[Full Text]
