Nairobi, Rajab 28, 1437, May 05, 2016, SPA -- Three people have been pulled alive from the rubble of a six-storey building that collapsed six days ago in the Kenyan capital Nairobi just hours after a pregnant woman was rescued alive, the country's Red Cross said on Thursday, according to dpa. The pregant woman was taken to hospital, the Red Cross tweeted. Her husband later confirmed that her rescue had taken three hours, that she had only sustained light injuries and that the baby had died in utero. The Red Cross confirmed later in the day that three others - two women and a man - had been pulled alive from the rubble and that one of the women succumbed to her wounds shortly thereafter, taking the death toll in the collapse to 37. Nearly 140 people have been rescued alive while about 80 remain missing. --SPA 01:20 LOCAL TIME 22:20 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
