The seven people killed when a two-story Tel Aviv building collapsed in a gas-canister explosion included four Israelis and three foreigners. The victims were:

* Kochava Cohen, 79, who lived next door; the wall of her house collapsed on her from the force of the explosion;

* Ignatious and Victoria Egon, a husband and his nine-month pregnant wife from Nigeria. Israel, at its own expense, will fly the bodies back to Nigeria;

* A 5-year-old girl, daughter of workers from the Philippines;

* Ayalah Hamdi, 49, whose brother owned the building.

* Yitzchak and Rachel Salem, husband and wife.
