Catastrofă într-o mină de aur dintr-o țară devastată de război. Cel puțin 82 de morți și zeci de dispăruți

At least 82 people have died following the collapse of an informal gold mine in Sudan, with many still missing. The incident occurred at the al-Zara mine in West Kordofan, an area controlled by the Rapid Support Forces amid ongoing conflict. Rescue operations are hindered by a lack of equipment, with only one private excavator available. Survivors described the collapse as severe, and safety measures at the mine were reportedly inadequate. Sudan, a significant gold producer, has seen similar deadly accidents due to poor safety standards, with past incidents resulting in numerous fatalities. The gold industry is intertwined with the ongoing conflict, as illegal gold extraction has been linked to financing the RSF.
