Baghdad [Iraq], November 8: Iraqi rescue teams on Monday continue to search for the 11 missing people believed to have been buried in the rubbles of a building that was engulfed by a massive fire on Sunday in central Baghdad.

Two of the three stories collapsed due to the fire, which was extinguished on late Sunday evening, said Kadhim.
