The death toll from the George building collapse has risen to 33, as rescuers continue their search.

The dead toll from last week’s building collapse in George, South Africa, has increased to 33, with 19 people still missing.

Despite continued rescue operations, no other survivors have been discovered. Only six victims have been recognized thus far.

Rescuers are focused on the building’s lower levels, as well as the first and second floors, with cranes, heavy gear, and sniffer dogs.

The operation involves around 600 individuals, many of whom come from adjacent towns.

George, located around 400 kilometers east of Cape Town, is a popular holiday and golf destination.

Authorities, including police and labor bureaus, are looking into the reason for the collapse.
