The death toll from the collapse of an eight-storey factory building near the Bangladeshi capital, Dhaka, has passed 700, officials say.
The announcement came after workers pulled dozens more bodies from the rubble. Many people are still missing.
Several people, including the building’s owner, have been arrested.
The collapse of the Rana Plaza on 24 April stands as Bangladesh’s worst industrial disaster. It sparked outrage among workers in the country.
The previous most deadly structural failure in modern times – excluding the 9/11 terror attacks in New York – was the Sampoong department store in Seoul, South Korea, in 1995, in which 502 people died.
