CAIRO (Reuters) - The death toll from a rockfall that sent boulders crashing down on dozens of houses in a crowded Cairo shanty town rose to 51 on Monday, with a number of people still missing, Egyptian security sources said.
Tumbling rocks crushed many buildings on Saturday in the Manshiyet Nasser neighbourhood in eastern Cairo, its close-packed houses and narrow alleys huddled at the foot of steep cliffs beside a highway.
