‘We are praying every minute’ – family cling to hope as 159 unaccounted for after Miami disaster

A total of 159 people are now unaccounted for – and at least four people have been killed – following the collapse of an apartment building in Florida.

Three more bodies were pulled from the rubble during what Miami-Dade mayor Daniella Levine Cava described as a “tragic night”.

“The search and rescue team worked throughout the night and it was a very active scene from above and from below,” she said.
