Armenia has extended condolences over the tragic collapse at a railway station in Serbia, which saw at least 14 people killed.
“Deeply saddened by the tragic collapse at the Railway Station of Novi Sad, Serbia. We extend our deepest condolences to the families of the victims and wish a swift recovery to those injured. Standing in solidarity in this time of sorrow,” the Foreign Ministry said in a post on X.
At least 14 people were killed after a concrete canopy at a railway station in northern Serbia collapsed, the country’s President Aleksandar Vučić said.
A young girl aged six or seven was among the dead, he added.
People were sitting on benches under the outdoor overhang at the station in Novi Sad, Serbia’s second city, at the time of the collapse around noon local time (11:00 GMT), Radio Television of Serbia (RTS) reported.
Three people are in hospital. Among them are two women who were pulled alive from under the rubble a few hours after the collapse.
