At the time of the collapse, there were 14 individuals inside the building.

Despite the building being partially intact, it continues to shift by 4 millimeters (0.16 inches) per hour, complicating rescue efforts significantly.

The site is swarming with around 250 emergency responders, including firefighters, paramedics, police, and technical relief workers. The operation also involves special forces, rescue dog teams, and drone units to aid in the search and rescue mission.
