In the United States, a huge search and rescue mission to find 6 missing workers after a major bridge collapsed has been suspended. Authorities in Baltimore believe there is no hope of finding them alive. The Francis Scott Key Bridge came down after being rammed by a packed container ship when it lost power on Tuesday morning. The federal government has promised money and resources to rebuild the bridge. Its collapse has indefinitely shut down the port of Baltimore, one of the biggest in the US.
