At least 40 people have died after a bridge in the Indian state of Gujarat collapsed, plunging hundreds of people into a river.

More than 150 people were on the suspension bridge over the Machchhu River in the town of Morbi at the time of the collapse, local TV channel Zee News said.

Footage showed dozens of people clinging on to the cables and twisted remains of the bridge as emergency teams struggled to rescue them. Some clambered up them to try to make their way to the river banks, while others swam to safety.
