At least 33 children and a teacher have been killed after a school roof collapsed in the north-western Pakistani city of Peshawar, according to hospital officials. More than a dozen others are injured, with some in a critical condition. Several children are feared to be trapped under the rubble. Emergency services were alerted to the incident at the private Al-Khair school in Dir Colony at 08:48 (03:48 GMT) on Thursday after lessons had begun, a rescue official said. He told the BBC the roof of an upper-floor classroom had collapsed, causing ceilings below to cave in as well.
