Local relief workers die due to bridge collapsed

On Wednesday, a Bridge collapsed which results to the death of two local relief workers in the earthquake-ravaged Pakistani Kashmir, a private relief group said.

A third volunteer fell into the raging Neelum River but was saved by other aid workers transporting goods in a motorboat, the group said. The rescued man sustained serious injuries. The bridge linked Muzaffarabad and the village of Dhani Mai Sahiba.

Several thousand volunteers from private charities, especially Islamic groups, have joined the aid effort after the October 8 quake alongside the army and international relief workers.
