Description

Rescue workers continued searching the remains of a collapsed building for survivors in Beirut on Friday, one day after signs of life were detected in the rubble.

Lebanese Civil Defense, engineers and civil defence personnel, as well as a Chilean team of rescuers, kept up work at the site, in Mar Mikhael, central Beirut.

Search efforts were launched on Wednesday, after a sniffer dog called Flash belonging to the Chilean search and rescue team detected something and ran towards a collapsed building, signalling a possible heartbeat under the rubble.

One month on from the Beirut port blasts, which left at least 190 dead, and some 6,500 injured, search efforts continue for victims buried beneath the rubble but the chance of finding survivors is dwindling.
