In the US, rescue efforts remain underway after a major bridge in Baltimore, Maryland collapsed early on Tuesday. At least seven vehicles are believed to have fallen in the water.

A container ship collided with the Francis Scott Bridge on the Patapsco River causing the bridge to snap. A video posted on X appeared to show the vessel striking one of the bridge’s central supports, causing much of the 2.6km bridge to give way.

We would like to hear from those who have been affected by the collapse. We’re also interested in hearing from those helping with the rescue operation or who live in the area.
