Surfside: Four more victims found in the debris at the location of the collapse of the Florida condominium, bringing the death toll to 36, a fire official said Tuesday.
Assistant Head of the Miami-Dade API Gaide Room Badallah told the family that the restored body number of Tuesday – eight total – was the highest in one day since the collapse on June 24.
The crew in a yellow helmet and blue jumpsuit look for debris for the 13th wind when the wind and rain from the ribbon outside the tropical storm Elsa assumes their efforts.
The video released by the Miami-Dade County flame department showed workers dragged pamban and electric saws through piles of barbed concrete debris with jerked steel rebar.
Other searchers can be seen digging by hand jumping through the concrete powder and removing the riding shovel into a big bucket.
Search workers and rescuers continue to look for open spaces where people can be found to live almost two weeks after the disaster struck in the Champlain Towers South Building in Surfside.
“We are actively looking aggressively as we can,” said the Head of Miami-Dade firefight Alan Cominsky at a press conference.
But he added: “Unfortunately, we don’t see anything positive.
The main things – empty space, living room – we don’t see anything like that.” While officials still mention efforts to search and rescue operations, Miami-Dade Mayor of Daniella Levine Cava said the families of those who were still missing were preparing news “tragic losses.” “I think everyone will be ready when it’s time to move to the next phase,” said Levine Cava, who emphasized that the crew would use the same treatment when they passed the debris even after their focus shifted from looking for a survivor to restore people who have been restored die.
, “Really, you won’t see the difference,” he said.
“We will carefully look for corpses and goods, and for catalogs and respectfully deal with the remnants we found.” No one was saved alive since the first hour after collapsing, which was surprised on June 24, when many residents of the building were asleep.
Officials announced Tuesday that four additional bodies had been found in debris, increasing the death toll to 32.
Until 113 people still did not count, even though only 70 of them were confirmed to have been inside the building when it collapsed, said Levine Cava.
Severe weather from Elsa threatened to hamper search efforts.
Lightning forced the rescue to pause their work for two hours Tuesday morning, assistant head of the Miami-Dade Fire Big Space.
And rigid winds 20 mph (32 kph), with stronger gusts, inhibiting efforts to move heavy debris with cranes, officials said.
However, the wind and the toughest rain storms are expected to bypass surfside and Miami’s neighbors when Elsa strengthened before making landing somewhere between Tampa Bay and Florida’s large bends on the route throughout Florida.
“Active search and rescue continues throughout the night, and these teams continue through very detrimental and challenging conditions,” said Levine Cava.
“Through rain and past the wind, they keep looking.” The crew has removed 124 tons (tons of 112 metrics) debris from the site, Cominsky said.
Workers have been released to find a wider area because the unstable part of the condominium building was destroyed Sunday amid fears that the structure could go down.
Officials said the demolition took consideration access to the space previously closed, including the bedroom where people were believed to sleep during the disaster.
