Letter Published in The National UAE on 16 Aug 18Prayers for the victims of the Genoa bridge collapse

In reference to your article Genoa motorway collapse; death toll rises in immense tragedy in Italian city(August 15), Federica Marsi’s article on the motorway bridge collapse in Genoa was sad to read. It has been more than five decades since the bridge was built by a famous architect and there have been frequent renovations in the meantime. The story notes that the cause of the tragedy might have been heavy rains and the bridge’s structural weaknesses. I pray for the victims and for the speedy recovery of the injured.
