The leaning tower of Alexandria: A13-storey building in Alexandria tilted across a street into another apartment block on Thursday, with images from the near collapse trending over the weekend on social media and in the local and foreign press. Thankfully no one was hurt. Police had evacuated the area and the army has been called in to demolish the tower. The owner of the building has also reportedly been arrested, with Alexandria Governor Mohamed Sultan ordering an investigation of all those involved in the licensing of the building.
