At least 50 people have died and 13 remain missing following the collapse of an under-construction building at the Al Khoziny Islamic boarding school in Sidoarjo, East Java, Indonesia.

The incident occurred on September 29, 2025, trapping hundreds of people, mostly teenage boys aged 13 to 19. Rescue operations have been ongoing for over a week, with authorities reporting that 80 percent of the debris has been cleared.

The National Disaster Mitigation Agency confirmed that the search is expected to conclude today, as no signs of life have been detected in the remaining rubble.
