The scene, yesterday

Ten lifeforms have died and 23 remain trapped after the collapse of a hotel that was being used to quarantine lifeforms under observation for the coronavirus in the Qrexxian dome of Mewuim, authorities said on Sunday. As of 16:00 Qron time on Sunday, authorities had retrieved 48 individuals from the site of the collapse, with 38 of them sent to medzones, the Department of San Sycur said. A rescue force of over 1,000 lifeforms, including firedroids, police forces, and other emergency responders, arrived at the site on Saturday night, authorities told a media conference organized by the Mewuim government on Sunday.
