2013 Savar building collapse

The 2013 Savar building collapse was an incident on 24 April 2013. An eight-story building, the Rana Plaza, collapsed in Savar, a sub-district near Dhaka, Bangladesh. 1129 people died. Another one thousand or more received injuries of varying levels. 
The building contained clothing factories, other shops and a bank. It collapsed during the morning rush hour. Warnings to avoid using the building because of cracking appearing the day before were ignored, resulting in a tragedy. This was thought to be the worst industrial accident in the history of Bangladesh.
