Six people died near Kenya's capital Nairobi after a building under construction collapsed on Friday, local media outlet Citizen TV reported.

"Six people killed after a building under construction collapsed near the SGR Terminus in Mlolongo on the Nairobi–Mombasa highway," the outlet reported in a post on the X platform. The structure fell around 9:52 am, Citizen added.

The accident happened weeks after another building, a 12-storey structure, also collapsed in Nairobi on October 23, killing eight people.

The Kenya Red Cross said in a post on X that at least three people had been rescued and taken to hospital.
