As Joe Biden Visits Surfside Disaster Scene, the Blame Game Begins But What Could Have Gone Wrong?
​The feeling of mourning in Surfside is palpable and it appears that many people even refrain from talking loudly.
Earlier on Thursday, Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said search and rescue efforts were halted overnight at the building collapse site due to concerns about the standing structure's stability and will resume once it is safe to do so. She also said Biden’s arrival will not affect the operations on the ground.
The death toll in the incident stands at 18 and 147 residents of the building are still unaccounted for.
