North Korea has apologized to bereaved families after an apartment building collapsed in Pyongyang last week the official KCNA news agency said, a rare admission of fallibility from the reclusive state. "The construction of an apartment house was not done properly and officials supervised and controlled it in an irresponsible manner," said the statement from KCNA. The official said the building was presumed to have held 92 households, or families and that hundreds have died in the wake of the collapse.
