Death toll rises to 90 in Miami Beach-area condo building collapse

Search efforts have accelerated in the last week after the demolition of a remaining structure that prevented teams from accessing some of the debris.

Confirmed deaths rose to 90 in the recovery efforts in the Miami Beach-area condo building collapse as crews continue to sift through the debris more than two weeks after the Champlain Towers South fell in the middle of the night.

At least 71 of the victims have been properly identified with next-of-kin notifications provided to their families, Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said Sunday morning. Search efforts have accelerated in the last week after officials demolished a still-standing section of the building that prevented teams from accessing a portion of the debris pile.

An estimated 31 people remain unaccounted for.
