🙏🙏🙏🙏
They going to slow,no sence of urgency, somebody please supervise the rescue operation,
Too many 'rescue workers' watching and waiting!!! Move like we see in overseas catastrophes. But alas this is SA, where the few have to do while the many wait to be told what to do…what has become of us?
My prayers goes to the families ❤
Way too much standing around
Praying for all those still trapped and for those helping but gosh why do these helpers seem to not have a sense of urgency? One guy in this footage is even standing there smoking. I get they need to take breaks but while he's smoking there is someone dying below him. Didn't an earlier report say they got to someone but when they got to him he had passed away while and he was alive and talking to them half an hour before. Get the military involved or volunteers or something. Have shorter shifts. Something. This building is small in comparison to that building that collapsed in Miami a while back and though people died, they managed to pull some people out alive with urgency and manpower. Come on guys. Time is of the essence.
Alhamdullilah all praise due to Allah swt
All can go help speed up the process how terrifying to the workers and fanilies😢😢😢😢
Every one available can go dig up😢
Don't you just love how some people are just standing around, hands behind backs, aimlessly…
Rip those are involved in this accident
Where’s the sense of urgency ??? 40 people still trapped and everyone standing around gawking at what??? There should be a thousand people there now moving rubble by hand? They should be shifting 10 tons per hour!!!
What are u saying major. Nothing about the list lives , not even number of deaths, casualties etc. You are only telling us about rescue team & slabs removal . There were lives list there. Were u not ready for the interview? My condolesxence to the families.
Yes, it's Jan's fault.
If he didn't come here, we would still be living on ground level, and none of this would've happened.
I wish Ou Jan would stop causing so much kak, eish.. Awe.
😢🙏
Eish, shame. I hope they are all rescued.
Building standards have regressed considerably. This entire fiasco needs to be investigated by independant civil engineers.
Damn
😢😢❤❤❤😢
Please Lord Jesus, please help them, please enable us, plus empower us, to help in any way we can
