The death toll in the collapse of a condo building in Surfside, Fla. rose to 78 on Friday after 14 victims were recovered. Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava called the number “heartbreaking” as recovery workers toiled for a 16th day to find victims in the rubble. Another 62 people remain unaccounted for.

Levine Cava told reporters that recovery efforts were still continuing with all urgency.

The painstaking search for survivors shifted to a recovery effort at midnight Wednesday after authorities said they had come to the agonizing conclusion that there was “no chance of life” in the rubble of the Champlain Towers South condo building.
