00:00Very good morning, we start again in a very different and special way,
00:05because there is breaking news, Carlos Salerno.
00:08We are talking about the collapse in Villa Gesell.
00:10Unfortunately, a hotel apart from 10 floors.
00:13Breaking news.
00:15They confirm the first death of an older man.
00:20This is the first news we have to give at this time in the morning.
00:25And at this time ...
00:27The deceased is confirmed, I say by the graph.
00:29It is confirmed by the Ministry of Security of the province of Buenos Aires.
00:33It is primary information, but confirmed,
00:36that there is an older man, male, deceased.
00:39That is the information at this time.
00:42And attention, because with a counterpoint, Pamela,
00:45we have to say that at this time there is a woman who is being rescued alive,
00:50under the rubble.
00:52There are 9 people who are being searched by firefighters,
00:56by civil defense, from different locations.
00:59Villa Gesell alone has a voluntary firefighter corps.
01:02Carlos, this deceased person, already confirmed,
01:05would be one of the 9 who are in the bunker, right?
01:08Yes, yes.
01:09They confirm me, the specific data they give me is,
01:12an older, they put me, a male, older, deceased.
01:17That is the primary data.
01:19And on the other hand, they point to me,
01:21a woman is being rescued at this time and she is alive.
01:27That is the other data they give me.
01:29They do not tell me in what conditions,
01:31but well, we are working live, Pamela.
01:33Mauche is from the place.
01:35The murderers are listening.
01:37Good morning, thank you very much.
01:39Yes, good morning.
01:40Fabián García is giving a press conference.
01:43He is the secretary of civil defense of the province of Buenos Aires.
01:47They fell, they turned to the neighboring house.
01:51What do you know?
01:53Are there fatal victims? Are there people rescued?
01:56The people who were rescued,
01:58were the people who left by their own means,
02:01at the beginning of the situation.
02:03Now we are ...
02:04Four people came out, who are available to the justice,
02:08who made the statement, who are in the police station,
02:10who have declared that they were working inside.
02:12And they are the ones who told us how many people,
02:15they thought there were, that they saw in the building.
02:18And then, an hour ago,
02:21the person in charge of the adjacent house came,
02:26and he told us that there were also four people in the other building.
02:30So under that hypothesis we are working.
02:32Are there any people rescued?
02:34The owners of the hotel, do you know how many people had worked?
02:37No, the owners of the hotel, we do not have them.
02:39The Har Hotel.
02:40The one that is collapsed, we did not have contact yet.
02:43They did not show up today?
02:44The one who is between 80 and 89 years old,
02:46do you know anything?
02:47They just said that ...
02:48They are the people, that's why.
02:49They are the people, by WhatsApp, no, by sound contact,
02:52through, as it is called, that they respond,
02:55that they make a noise, or that they respond to the rescuers.
02:57This is an area, think about it,
02:59where we cannot be there.
03:01The rescuers only enter there,
03:03because it is on the rubble,
03:05and you have to work very carefully.
03:06So that ...
03:07Where did the rescuers come from?
03:08The rescuers are from the fire department of the province of Buenos Aires,
03:10police firefighters, volunteer firefighters.
03:13They are our system in the province of Buenos Aires.
03:15Did you hear screams for help?
03:17Do you have any idea?
03:18It's the sound contact they make, of course.
03:20The sound contact, when they ask me, they listen to me,
03:22you will also see that every 15 minutes, 20 minutes,
03:26they will ask for silence.
03:28Total silence is made,
03:30and there they start looking, the dogs work,
03:32and they also try to hear if someone emits a sound.
03:36And where is the sound heard from?
03:37From the building or from the park?
03:39No, the firefighters hear it on the rubble.
03:41Now it's a pile of rubble,
03:43of what is being worked on.
03:45You may be asking for donations for the firefighters,
03:47or the neighbors automatically brought things,
03:49and some messages on the network.
03:51No, no, it is not necessary.
03:52We have that, our work,
03:54if you want, of the provincial civil defense,
03:56and coordination and logistical support,
03:58and all the provisions are being made.
04:00That is not necessary.
04:01In fact, we ask the neighbors not to approach,
04:05so there is no ...
04:07How are you working with the relatives of the possible victims?
04:10Are they all here? Are they contacted?
04:12No, the relatives, those who are coming,
04:13are being worked on by the mental health area of the province of Buenos Aires,
04:16and the municipality is also doing the accompaniment,
04:19so we are also working with the municipality.
04:21Adrián, ask the deceased, please.
04:22Emergency system of the province,
04:24volunteer firefighters, police firefighters, health system.
04:26The truth is that in that sense everything is very well organized.
04:30Tell him, Adrián.
04:31Other forces will be added as they have to be replaced.
04:34We have the information that a deceased person opened,
04:36you do not have that data?
04:38No, we do not only have that data.
04:40No, no, that data will be seen
04:42as people are rescued, okay?
04:44It has been confirmed.
04:45It has been confirmed.
04:46It has been confirmed, of course.
04:48No one appeared in the name of the hotel?
04:50No owners believe they were inside the place?
04:52No, at least I have no record.
04:55It seems that the owner is one of the people
04:59who were in the place at the time.
05:00The municipality talks about clandestine works,
05:02I think in the elevator area, in the underground,
05:05do you have the same information?
05:07Our task now is to work.
05:09In the rescue of people, of course.
05:11And then it would not be the civil defense
05:13or the Ministry of Security to carry out that task.
05:16What we know is that there were people
05:18who were working inside,
05:20not during that time, because it was 040,
05:22they would surely be resting.
05:24That's just what we care about,
05:27the number of people there were.
05:29Between 9 and 15, more or less?
05:31Between 15, around 15 people.
05:33They asked me like 20 times.
05:35We understand that we are all alive.
05:37Thank you, thank you, sorry.
05:39Around 15 people, between the two houses.
05:41There may be some more, some less.
05:43Are you talking about those who left or 15 in total?
05:46No, those who stayed inside.
05:47We must also think that the people
05:49who made that declaration were in a state of shock.
05:51They left, they were scared, they were shocked,
05:54they did not know what was happening.
05:56The mental and critical situation
06:01that we have, both the rescuers
06:03and those who are collaborating with you
06:05and especially the people who were inside,
06:07well, we have to take it relatively.
06:09Where were the people who managed to leave?
06:12They were inside the hotel, inside the room
06:14and also inside some of the rooms
06:17of the neighboring building.
06:19The building next door is a hotel too?
06:21No, we only got there two hours later,
06:24we were in La Plata, three hours later.
06:26They made the statement at the police station.
06:28What we cared about was where the rest of the people were,
06:30and how many there were.
06:32So, well, I'm going to keep working.
06:34Thank you, Fabian.
06:36Fabian García,
06:39Deputy Secretary of Defense of the Province of Buenos Aires.
06:42The first one who came to speak to the press,
06:45obviously being very cautious with the information.
06:53Yes, of course, but we have the confirmation.
06:57Yes, the Ministry of Security informs us of what is happening.
07:01This is breaking news.
07:04They are rescuing, even at this moment,
07:08firefighters from different towns,
07:10a woman who was alive.
07:12Under the rubble, a building fell,
07:15for those who are just getting up,
07:17a building, a ten-story hotel,
07:20which was undergoing a remodeling
07:24or modification of the structure
07:26in order to place an elevator,
07:29without any kind of permission,
07:31by the municipality.
07:33In fact, there is a report,
07:35which I'm going to tell you about,
07:37of works of the municipality,
07:39where it says that they could only do
07:41everything that is aesthetic refactoring.
07:44Aesthetic repair, nothing more.
07:46Of structure.
07:47So, what happened at one in the morning?
07:49That's why it's called clandestine, clandestine works,
07:51because the remodeling was not done.
07:53Also, Carlitos, those who get out,
07:56those who manage to escape,
07:57what they say is that it would be part
07:59of the people who were working in this remodeling.
