The roof of the iconic Jet Set nightclub in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, collapsed during a merengue concert, resulting in the deaths of at least 98 people. Rescuers continued their desperate search for survivors in the rubble, more than 24 hours after the incident occurred early on Tuesday.

The nightclub, known for hosting popular Monday parties with national and international artists, was filled with attendees, including politicians, athletes, and other guests when the collapse happened, reports AP.

Rescue teams worked tirelessly, carefully listening for any cries for help as they cleared debris. Emergency workers removed large chunks of concrete and used wood planks to lift heavy wreckage, with the sound of drills echoing through the air.
