Rescue underway after highway bridge collapses in Italy

At least 26 people have been killed and more than a dozen injured after a motorway bridge over the northern Italian port city of Genoa collapsed. The death toll is expected to rise, as firefighters and local police search for survivors and bodies amid the rubble. The exact cause of the collapse is still unknown but concerns had been raised about the bridge's structural integrity for years
