BRUSSELS: Three construction workers were confirmed dead and two still missing on Saturday, a day after a school construction site partially collapsed in the Belgian city of Antwerp.
The city’s fire department tweeted that three bodies had been found under the rubble.
“Despite this terrible toll, the rescue work continues unabated until we are also able to free the two remaining missing persons,” it said.
Two of the dead were from Portugal and Romania, police told local media.
The nationality of the third dead worker was not clear. Rescuers had said when three people were still missing that they were looking for two more Portuguese and one Russian.
