Nairobi (AFP) - A woman was pulled alive Thursday from the rubble of a building that collapsed when heavy rains hit Nairobi six days ago, an AFP reporter on the scene said.

The woman was pulled out hours after being located on Thursday morning by rescuers who gave her oxygen while they continued with efforts to extract her from the ruins of the six-storey building.
