, as a massive search and rescue mission continued into its fourth day on Sunday, officials said.
"Hope. That's what I'm focused on," Cominsky said."We're going to continue moving and searching as hard as we can and for as long as we can until we have to make that decision." Mayor Cava said firefighters managed to contain an out-of-control blaze that had been burning deep in the rubble, hampering rescue efforts. She said the fire was contained around noon on Saturday.She also said emergency teams have cut a 125-foot long, 20-foot wide and 40-foot deep trench through the rubble to help enhance the search.
Surfside Mayor Charles Burkett said the Israeli Homefront Command Team and a rescue unit from Mexico have also joined the search.Members of the Israel Rescuers delegation gather upon their arrival in the area near the partially collapsed 12-story Champlain Towers South condo building in the city of Surfside, Florida, June 27, 2021.
"On behalf of the president, our hearts go out to all of the families and the loved ones who have been affected by this really tragic incident," Creswell said."The number of volunteers that have shown up, the number of nonprofit organizations, community members have really all come together to help this community in a time of great need," Creswell said."FEMA is here to assist with that.
Any not crushed dead by the collapse must have died of dehydration by now. (It will be sad if they discover any.) They soon to dig so slowly, as if with teaspoons and bucket brigade? Have the 'rescue' teams never heard of VACUUM TRUCKS?
I wish I had the ear of the building inspector to ask if a minor earthquake could have been the catalyst for the condo to collapse. Was this the last straw for the collapse ? The explosion that USGS picked up as a 3.7 quake on June 19 9:04 AM. It came down about 1:00 am June 24.
你们若是不行就请求中国人民解放军上!
Florida so Republican they can’t stop lying and tell the truth it’s been way too much time....this is a recovery not rescue mission
If you were in China, 3 days would have cleared the surface. I'm curious how the US rescue teams, are still milling around on the surface of the collapsed buildings, are they taking a walk
The search and rescue seem very inefficient and disorganized. How many hours has it been? No further update from the rescue site at all? 150+ missing and only 9 confirmed victims? Meaning they only found 9 so far.
This situation is so awful! It looks so suspicious because the building came down like it imploded. Shouldn't it have fallen differently if were just structural damage?
My condolences to the families and friend of victims
