FLORIDA BUILDING COLLAPSE: Operation shifts from rescue to recovery as death toll climbs to 54
In the US state of Florida, emergency crews have given up any hope of finding survivors in the condo building which collapsed two weeks ago. Authorities announced they will direct their efforts to recovering more remains. They say they have run out of every available option in the search-and-rescue mission and there was no chance of life. The death toll has risen to 54 and 86 people remain missing. It's still unclear what caused the collapse two weeks ago. A 2018 engineering report had pointed out structural deficiencies. Officials demolished the remainder of the building on Sunday. #Florida #Surfside #BuildingCollapse
