尽管官员们不愿透露搜救行动何时会正式过渡到恢复任务，但莱文·卡瓦告诉记者，工作人员将“像现在一样继续彻底、仔细地筛选这些成堆的东西”，寻找“尸体和遗物”她说，这是一个“非常彻底和彻底”的过程。

工作人员已经从巨大的废墟中拖走了近500万磅的混凝土，但仍有大量瓦砾。迈阿密戴德消防救援负责人艾伦·科明斯基说，救援人员一直在“积极”寻找废墟中可能有被困幸存者的任何空隙或“可居住空间”，但他们“没有遇到这种情况。”自大楼部分倒塌的那天早上以来，在废墟中没有发现幸存者。

“我们没有看到任何积极的东西，”科明斯基周二上午告诉记者。

大规模的搜索和救援任务现在已经进入第13天，因为救援队能够全力以赴，在以前无法进入的地区进行搜索。

建筑中保留下来的部分没有任何人或物宠物在周日晚上被拆除之前，由于担心其结构的完整性。然而，官员们说，幸存的居民进入大楼取回他们的物品太危险了。

在拆除之前，搜寻和救援行动上周几乎停止了一整天，原因是工作人员对剩余建筑的安全担忧。恶劣的天气条件也迫使他们暂时停止工作。

Surfside building collapse latest: 8 more bodies recovered from rubble, bringing death toll to 36

At least 36 people, including three children, have been confirmed dead and 109 others remain unaccounted for after a 12-story residential building partially collapsed in SouthFlorida's Miami-Dade County last month.

The disasteroccurredon June 24 around 1:15 a.m. local time at the Champlain Towers South condominium in the small, beachside town of Surfside, about 6 miles north of Miami Beach. Approximately 55 of the oceanfront complex's 136 units were destroyed, according to officials. Since then, hundreds of first responders have beencarefully combing throughthe pancaked piles of debris in hopes of findingsurvivors.

Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava announced Tuesday morning that four more bodies were recovered from the rubble. In the evening, she announced another four bodies had been recovered, bringing the official death toll to 36.

Three more victims, Nancy Kress Levin, 76, Jay Kleiman, 52, and Francis Fernandez, 67, were identified Tuesday, according to investigators. In total 29 victims have been identified as of Tuesday evening.

Meanwhile, investigators have confirmed that 70 of the 109 people who are still missing were in fact inside of the condominium at the time of the partial collapse. Another 191 people who were living or staying in the building at that time have been accounted for and are safe, according to Levine Cava, who has stressed that the figures are "very fluid" and "will continue to change" as detectives continuously audit the list.

Although officials wouldn't say when the search and rescue operation will formally transition into a recovery mission, Levine Cava told reporters that the crews will "continue as now to thoroughly, carefully sift through these piles," looking for "bodies and belongings." The process is a "very thorough and exhaustive" one, she said.

Crews have hauled away nearly 5 million pounds of concrete from the vast scene of wreckage, but large piles of rubble still remain. Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Chief Alan Cominsky said the rescue workers have been "aggressively" searching for any voids or "liveable spaces" within the debris where there could be trapped survivors but that they are "not coming across that." No survivors have been discovered in the wreckage of the building since the morning it partially collapsed.

"We're not seeing anything positive," Cominsky told reporters on Tuesday morning.

The massive search and rescue mission is now in its 13th day, as teams are able to operate at full capacity and search in areas that were previously inaccessible.

The part of the building that remained standing was cleared of any people orpetsbefore it was demolished on Sunday night, due to concerns about its structural integrity. However, it was too dangerous for surviving residents to enter the building to retrieve their belongings, officials said.

Video released by the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue on Monday night showed crews working atop the piles, braving the elements as Tropical Storm Elsa approached the Sunshine State.

The incoming storm, which has weakened from ahurricane, initiated the discussion about demolishing the rest of the building and fast-tracked the process, according to Surfside Mayor Charles Burkett. Elsamade landfallin Cuba on Monday and by Tuesday morning the storm's center was moving through Key West with maximum sustained winds of 60 miles per hour, according to the National Weather Service.

Prior to the demolition, the search and rescue operation was halted for almost an entire day last week due to safety concerns for the crews regarding the remaining structure. Poor weather conditions have also forced them to temporarily pause working.

The cause of the partial collapse to a building that has withstood decades of hurricanesremains unknownand isunder investigation. Built in the 1980s, the Champlain Towers South was up

"The whole world wants to know what happened here," Levine Cava told reporters on Tuesday morning. "I look forward to learning the truth, as do we all, but I think it'll be a while before it is understood."

Burkett told reporters that he has drafted a letter that will be sent to condo boards and building owners outlining "minimum stopgap" measures to ensure their properties are secure.

"The town of Surfside is committed to doing everything it can to ensure the safety and peace of mind of its residents and we are grateful to our county, state and federal partners for all their amazing support," he said.
