November 13 () –

Rescue teams have recovered a body from the rubble of two collapsed buildings in Lille, northern France, during work carried out overnight.

At around 1:30 a.m., the firefighters have located a body that, in the absence of confirmation, would correspond to a 45-year-old psychiatrist, head of the Calais Hospital service, Alexandre Klein, according to the local newspaper ‘La Voix du Nord’.

“We had to take a lot of precautions, the building had collapsed like a millefeuille,” explained a spokesman for the emergency services, Stéphane Beauventre.

80 firefighters, six dog handlers and members of the entire department work at the site, Beauventre highlighted.
