Reading Time: < 1 minute

In a remarkable turn of events, a man was rescued from the rubble five days after a devastating building collapse in South Africa. The collapse occurred in the city of George, east of Cape Town, and resulted in the tragic loss of 13 lives, with 29 survivors and 39 individuals still unaccounted for.

Western Cape Premier Alan Winde described the rescue as “nothing short of a miracle” as the survivor was successfully extracted from the debris after 116 hours. The rescue operation involved a combination of cranes, drills, and the tireless efforts of rescue workers who used their bare hands to reach those trapped under the collapsed five-story building.

Images from the scene show the intense efforts of rescue workers, including a search and rescue dog and a drone capturing the extent of the devastation. Families anxiously awaited news of their loved ones, with one woman, Edna Nissi, seen waiting for updates about her brother.

The community rallied together as residents watched in solidarity while rescuers worked tirelessly to save those trapped under the rubble. The ongoing rescue operation serves as a testament to the resilience and determination of the human spirit in the face of tragedy.
