At least one person died and dozens were injured Monday after an Islamic school building collapsed on Indonesia's main island of Java. More than 100 students had gathered to perform afternoon prayers when the multistory building suddenly collapsed.

East Java police spokesman told reporters that rescuers evacuated at least 79 victims from the incident at the Al Khoziny Islamic boarding school in the town of Sidoarjo. Authorities are working to establish how many victims are still at the scene.
