[Regnum] At least 48 people were killed in a collapse at an illegal gold mine in Mali, West Africa, on February 15. The incident was reported by the AFP agency.

The emergency occurred on the surface of a mine where a Chinese company had previously worked. The dead were mostly women, the publication notes.

According to local police, such incidents occur frequently in the region due to the large number of cases of “illegal exploitation of mines.”
