Israeli delegation says chances of finding survivors in Colombia are slim
Enemy media: The head of Israel's aid delegation to quake-stricken Colombia says the chance of finding survivors under the rubble a week after the disaster is slim. Brig. Gen. (Res.) Yossi Pinto, commander of the IDF National Search and Rescue Unit, said in a call with reporters this morning that there are hundreds of damaged buildings in the city of Cali, where the Israeli delegation is operating. He said there are only five sites of heavy destruction underneath which people are still trapped or missing, and that the Israeli team is operating at three of them. Pinto said tomorrow morning will mark the eighth day since the earthquake, and that as time passes the chances of finding people alive decrease.
