Nine people died when a block of flats collapsed in the city of Liege in eastern Belgium, officials say.
Rescue work has been suspended amid fears that neighbouring buildings could also collapse. Twenty-one people were injured, three of them seriously, the BBC reported.
An explosion tore through the building at around 0200 on Wednesday, starting a fire. Then the five-storey building collapsed at around 0700.
Officials said the explosion was probably caused by a gas leak.
The blast blew out the windows of the city hall, 100m away, and spread dust throughout nearby streets.
It caused a fire that raged through the apartment block and billowed thick smoke.
Firemen evacuated the building and tried to douse the fire, but had to flee when the building fell down.
