As of today, One victim passed away in the hospital and we've recovered eight more victims on site. So I am confirming today that the death toll is at nine. We're cutting a deep trench to assist us. It's now 125 ft in length into the pile. It's 20 ft wide and 40 ft deep. Now, this trench is very critical to the continuation of the search and rescue process. Uh, we've continued all night to build that trench, and as a result of that, we were able to recover for additional bodies in the rubble, as well as additional human remains. Now you see a lot more activity on top of the equipment coming through and those moving larger debris. So as we see void spaces, that's where they come through. And it's a very, very slow process because if there's anything we see, you know, we need to make sure we're going through in a very slow, methodical process for the best attempt of a rescue.
