House partially collapses in Male’ amid adjacent construction
A portion of the M. Lucky Haven building in Male’ City collapsed this afternoon during the construction of a neighboring building, M. Navigator.

According to the Male’ City Council, no injuries were reported in the incident.
However, four families residing in the affected house are being relocated as a precautionary measure.
