Four dead in Pakistan footbridge collapse

Four people died after a footbridge collapsed in Pakistan.

The incident took place in Jammu and Kashmir's Neelum Valley, when tourists where crossing the bridge. Reports say 11 other people, believed to be mostly students, are still missing.

Sources indicate around 20-25 people were on the bridge when it collapsed. A strong current in icy water underneath swept many away. Some managed to hold on to wooden bars and were rescued by locals at the site.

Some people on social media criticised the authorities over a lack of proper guidance for tourists.
