Overview

• Rescue operations concluded overnight with four workers recovered deceased and roughly ten people treated for injuries as crews stabilized the site for a multi‑day debris removal.
• Victims were identified by authorities and company sources as Laura Rodríguez Sabín, Moussa Dembelé, Diallo Mamadún (also reported as Alfa), and Jorge, all employed on the project through ANKA and the contractor Rehbilita.
• The Municipal Police judicial unit and specialized labor-accident investigators are leading the case under Court No. 43, with forensic and structural assessments pending.
• Authorities cite a working hypothesis of excessive material load on the sixth floor; ABC reports an initial police note suggesting material may have been piled for days at a single point, a detail not yet confirmed.
• The 1965 building had permits to be converted into a four‑star hotel by Saudi‑managed fund RSR via Caler Advisory, and a 2022 inspection flagged facade and roof conservation issues without an established link to the collapse, as large fire, medical and canine units mounted the response.
