00:00We are in Puerto Madero, shocking images, we are talking about a sea tower of several floors with 50 evacuees, a building of 30 floors and the fire is on the 15th floor.
00:15Yes, a fire, we are waiting for some definitions in relation to the number of evacuees, well, you said 50, the fire is active from the 10th floor to the 15th, as Facundo pointed out, which originated on the 15th.
00:30This is information in development and to complete it, we are in telephone communication with Cristian Bagrieto, who is a specialist in traffic issues and gives us this date.
00:41How are you Cristian? Thank you for attending us.
00:43Hello Marina, we are going to update this information because it is happening right now. There are not 50 evacuees, now there are 100 evacuees, of which 5 will be transferred urgently to Cosme Argerich Hospital for carbon monoxide inhalation.
01:00The SAME is working with 30 ambulances, there is an important firefighter operation, this is the tower located on Marta Lynch street, 551, also known as the Renoir 2 towers.
01:13The truth is that the total cut there is Marta Lynch at 500 between Painei and Avenida de los Italianos, it is an integrated security system that put together the SAME with a special corridor to take people who suffer from carbon monoxide inhalation to Argerich Hospital, which is the closest hospital.
01:31We reiterate this information, so far there are 100 evacuees, of which 5 were transferred urgently to Argerich Hospital.
01:39The beginning of the fire was caused by a technical malfunction and the truth is that there are 10 units that are burning from the flames.
01:50Well, attention because what we see is a large operation of the SAME, they have obviously deployed firetrucks in the area, there are also several firetrucks working in the place.
02:01I repeated the reason for the beginning of the fire, I tell you Cristian, well you have shared images with the production, Cristian Baglietto has very good data, we usually hear it on Radio La Red, with all the traffic report, the images are shocking because it is a very large tower, you were talking about an electrical malfunction, right?
02:22The electrical malfunction that had originated on the 10th floor and took the floors above, that is, we have with fire so far 10 units, it is a tower of 30 floors, of which 10 floors were already consumed by the flames.
02:39And we reiterate, more than 100 evacuees, they are no longer telling me 100, now there are more than 100 evacuees, 20 firefighters are working in height because there were people who are inside the building, there are 20 firefighters who are working in height to rescue people who would have been trapped.
02:56There we are seeing in the image a firefighter working in height, well it is difficult with the smoke column, now this data catches our attention because you said that it originated in an apartment that immediately took 10 floors and well we imagine that there will be a lot of trapped people, it should not be easy to get it out or much less inside.
03:19Even Maria, there is an image that is a bit of what Christian Baglietto's data describes, the fire started on the 10th floor and there is an image that was clearly seen as the fire was still continuing on the 10th floor, but look how it was reaching up, right?
03:35Look at this.
04:05They were trapped because they had problems with carbon monoxide, of which 100 people were evacuated, 5 arrived on the ground floor in a delicate state, that is why they were transferred urgently to the Algerich hospital and a special corridor is being made to take these people to the Algerich hospital because they inhaled a lot of carbon monoxide, so we are in a moment of great tension in this place.
04:32And it is striking that it is a relatively new building, I do not know how to calculate the antiquity, but that they have not skipped the systems that somehow fight the fire inside the building.
04:47Maria, some sources of the police in the city realize that the fire began in an environment, Christian, intended for dormitories, an extension of approximately 1.50 meters, 2 meters high, it is a process attacked by firefighters immediately and luckily now they are confirming that all the people who could be at risk there in the place were evacuated, that is why the figure rose from 50 to 100.
05:15It is striking the deployment of firefighters units, also the units of triage, the SAME, which was present in seconds, Christian.
05:27Yes, we repeat this information that we are updating, so far there are 130 evacuated, of which 10 of them were transferred to the Algerich hospital, as Marina and Facundo said, the firefighters managed to control the fire, however, the firefighters continue to work inside the building to determine if there are no people trapped.
05:52Of these people, there are 5 women and 1 man who were transferred to the Algerich hospital, 6 people were treated in the place and more SAME units are added, there are 33 ambulances that are in the place.
06:08The figure is very shocking, it is a huge operation and you say that there are 5 people in a delicate state, at least by inhalation of carbon dioxide.
06:19There is a smoke, as they realize, from the SAME, which made the building difficult and continues to make it difficult, of course, the smoke is preventing the firefighters from detecting where the focus is, the focus that is active, we are live, we are already arriving, but we are with several images, I don't know if those images have ambient sound and we can record what is being experienced there in the place, because there is concern, 33 ambulances, the entire emergency system of the city of Buenos Aires working live in the place.
06:47I repeated, then, let's recap, Cristian, all the information, go ahead.
06:54Let's see if I have it here.
06:56Let's see, let's see, let's see, give me this story, give me this story in the place, please, let's see.
07:03Look, there with ambient sound, Marina.
07:06It is a very new tower.
07:08Yes.
07:1133 SAME units working in the place.
07:15Several fire stations, 130 evacuated, 5 in a state, I don't want to talk about gravity, but in a delicate state, they had to be urgently transferred to the Argerich, due to the inhalation of that toxic smoke and the consequences in the respiratory system.
07:33We are trying to reconnect with Cristian and connect with Crescentia.
07:36Well, luckily, the official part that we are receiving, they speak that so far the appearance of victims is negative.
07:46This is very good news.
07:48They did evacuate the whole place, it was evacuated in order, they are buildings, Marina, it must also be said that they have an easy evacuation, although we are talking about very large buildings, they also have identified the best way to evacuate.
08:03Always, of course, the recommendation is not to go up to the elevators, but to carry out an evacuation by the stairs and by the emergency routes.
08:15Floor 10, fire focus, put there.
08:17Exactly, one of the hypotheses, the main one so far, is that this electrical malfunction could have originated in an air conditioning, in an air conditioning equipment, precisely on the 10th floor or on a nearby floor, because it is not confirmed, the expert will do it, if it was indeed on the 10th floor.
08:38But the strongest hypothesis has to do with a short circuit in one of the air conditioning devices.
08:44Of course, everything will be subject to expertise, so we update the information.
08:51What the firemen say is important, the amount of smoke, the dense smoke, that black smoke that the experts always realize that when there is black smoke, it comes from, of course, this should be said by the specialists.
09:02One only transmits what they usually dialogue or talk with some experts, it comes from an electrical malfunction.
09:10That is, here what you see, that dense and black smoke, at first made it difficult to identify where the fire focus was located, which now seems to be under control.
09:22But I tell you, Marina, the deployment is tremendous.
09:25We also alert people who have to go to the area of Puerto Madero, of course, total cuts in the streets.
09:33And to add information, 20 firemen are working at high altitude at the moment.
09:39It is difficult to see them because they are covered by those dense clouds or columns of black smoke.
09:45But there are 30 SAME vehicles, actually 33, and at least 20 firemen working at high altitude to finish extinguishing the fire.
09:56Because it has spread very quickly and that has made it very difficult to combat it.
10:02Well, the SAME is working, the Crescenti team is there.
10:06Let's recap, Marta Lynch, 551.
10:10The fire started on the 10th floor, it spread.
10:15We are talking about a very modern tower in Puerto Madero of approximately 30 floors.
10:20There is a large vehicle and transit cut, obviously, as part of the operation in Lynch at 500, between Aimé Paine and Avenida de los Italianos.
10:31The integrated security system is activated, working there in the place.
10:36Yes, we remember, 20 firemen working at high altitude, 130 evacuated, 5 of them with a certain severity.
10:46But thank God for now no fatal victims are registered.
10:50And they begin to appear on our cell phones, the comments of the experts on building issues,
10:57who fail to understand how a building of such little antiquity does not have the preventive and extinguishing systems
11:04according to the possibility that there is an electrical failure.
11:08Apparently it started, it would have started, we are going to put it in potential, it is a development information,
11:13in an air conditioning equipment.
11:16And I tell you, Marina, that we are talking about a skyscraper, the Renoir 2 tower,
11:19which is one of the highest skyscrapers in Argentina.
11:22It is 175 meters high, only surpassed by the Alvear tower of 235 and the Cavia tower of 173.
11:32That is why surely the specialists realize this that you were marking.
11:38What we see on part of the screen is an impressive deployment operation,
11:43with 33 ambulances of the city emergency system.
11:48And look at the firemen already working there in the place, more than 100 evacuated.
11:54In principle there are no fatal victims, but there are 5 people who have had to be transferred
12:00to different ambulances, the closest we understand possibly to the Argerich,
12:05taking into account some respiratory problems.
12:08If you agree Facundo, we reconnect with Cristian Baglietto who was updating us the information.
12:13Cristian, we listen to you.
12:15Yes, Marina, we update this information as you are mentioning it.
12:18It was arranged for doctors from the SAME to enter the building to see if there are trapped people.
12:26The information that we are handling is that there would be people who were trapped,
12:32locked in their units, who cannot go down because of the fog.
12:36That is why there are 20 firemen working at a height and they said that the SAME doctors
12:43should enter that tower to attend to the people.
12:46I tell you that you are seeing hours of panic, hours of tension in Puerto Madero.
12:50There are 33 ambulances.
12:53The doctors are acting urgently, quickly, efficiently, together with the firemen.
12:59There is a lot of tension in the area.
13:01Cristian, is the igneous focus controlled or not yet?
13:06Can we say that it is controlled or not yet?
13:08Because there is contradictory information in this regard and we want to know
13:12if it is already circumscribed to those 10 floors that you were describing
13:15or is there a risk that it will take more floors up above all?
13:19Look, the first information that we have, that we handle,
13:23is that the firemen pointed out that it would have been controlled.
13:26But I agree with you, there is contradictory information because at other times
13:31it is said that it is not controlled, that the smoke continues to come out of some units of that building.
13:38For this reason, it was arranged for the SAME doctors to enter that tower
13:44by the people who are trapped inside some units.
13:49For this reason, this information, at the last moment,
13:52is that the 20 firemen who are working up there said urgently
13:56that the SAME doctors should enter to attend to people who would be trapped in that place.
14:02Well, let's remember, Cristian, 20 firemen who work up there, more than 100 evacuated.
14:07Of course, this is news like any fire, but it is also news
14:11because it is one of the most important skyscrapers in an area such as Puerto Madero.
14:16We are talking about a building, as you can see, of proportions.
14:21I want to see if at some point we can have the atmosphere of what people are living there,
14:25the people who registered this, we repeat, there are 20 mobile phones of firemen who work,
14:33sorry, 30 mobile phones of the SAME who work in the place
14:36and there are several mobile phones of firemen who are also working there.
14:39Firemen at the moment with 5 equipment,
14:43activated the public security system.
14:53There is the story of the person who registers this,
14:56who, of course, also realizes the task that the firemen were carrying out,
15:01with a whole operative, Cristian, of transit in the place to block the area, right?
15:09Well, there we lose it again, Cristian.
15:12Yes, we lose it again.
15:14It is shocking the fact that the firefighters would be entering the building in some way,
15:20we understand that by height, because there are 20 working in height,
15:23to try to make a sort of tracking inside the building
15:28to see if they find trapped people.
15:31They are not sure that everyone has left the building.
15:35Different sources of government of the city realize that the place would be all evacuated,
15:40but I stay with that fact that Cristian said,
15:43of the need for doctors to enter the place.
15:46Maybe they took them out and stayed in the building,
15:49because it is a very large building too, right?
15:52You say that they are actually evacuated inside the building and are going to be treated there.
15:57The city police officially says that they are all evacuated.
16:00Yes, there it is not well understood why the firefighters continue to work in height.
16:03Because the doctors enter, right?
16:05And because the doctors enter.
16:07That is why we say that it is a development news.
16:09This happens now.
16:11The information is somewhat contradictory, but there is data that is accurate.
16:15There were 130 evacuated in this 30-story building.
16:19The fire would have originated around the 10th floor.
16:22There are versions that say that a little lower.
16:25It would have taken at least 10 floors.
16:28The origin, at least the strongest hypothesis,
16:31is that of the technical imperfection.
16:34There are even those who dare to go further and say that it originated in an air conditioning equipment
16:39or in a kind of air conditioning center.
16:43You see that many times these buildings have central airs
16:46and they have places from where these central airs operate.
16:50So they are seeing if this is the origin.
16:53And well, within the evacuated, these 130 evacuated,
16:56five delicate people.
16:58Look at the amount of people working and how they have the equipment available.
17:03There you see the medical S.A.M.E.
17:05If this has audio, I put it with audio.
17:08There you see the medical S.A.M.E.
17:10Of course, which is what we were just saying.
17:12This is, I say, how they are prepared.
17:14You have to see if they are not having the uniforms to be able to enter the place, right?
17:19Exactly, which is the information that Cristian was adding to us earlier.
17:22That they were foreseeing the entry of the S.A.M.E. personnel to the building.
17:26We do not know if it has to do with people who were rescued but did not leave.
17:30It is a tower that ended up being built, Marina, in 2014.
17:33That is why it is very new, it is 10 years old.
17:36Very new, which obviously has all the technology of 2014 and the height
17:44to be considered one of the main skyscrapers in the city of Buenos Aires, right?
17:48Yes, that is why there are already experts who explain to us
17:52how the fire prevention systems failed
17:54and the fire control systems once they were unleashed, right?
17:59But well, this will be a matter of expertise
18:02and they will have to give the explanations of the case to the developers
18:06and those in charge of maintenance.
18:08The experts, of course, will be able to throw what was the beginning of the ignoble focus
18:14that at some point, as Cristian Baglietti told us,
18:17and as police sources also told us,
18:20had originated on the 10th floor, 11th floor, 12th floor.
18:24From there it does not come out and the smoke made it difficult to locate
18:30where the focus was, precisely at the beginning,
18:34to be able to attack it directly.
18:37And I add a fact, Facundo.
18:39There is an express request from the government of the autonomous city of Buenos Aires
18:43not to approach the area as much as possible,
18:46to be avoided by the passers-by, the curious,
18:49or even those who have to go for work reasons, medical shifts, whatever.
18:54There is a request to wait, not to approach the area,
18:58not only because the streets are cut off,
19:01but also because of the danger that the fact that there is uncertainty about the control of the fire poses.
19:07Marta Lynch, 551, at the intersection of Jaime Paine,
19:12Avenida de los Italianos, this is Puerto Madero.
19:15The sinister was recorded on the 11th or 12th floor, it is not clear yet,
19:20of this tower that generated the dense amount of smoke
19:25that initially made it difficult to identify the precise focus
19:30to be able to attack and start extinguishing it.
19:34Let's hope it is already under control,
19:37but what is seen there is still an important tongue of fire.
19:40We have more information among the evacuees,
19:45we have 50, we said there are more than 130 evacuees,
19:50of which 50 are under medical observation,
19:54that is, they have not yet been discharged.
19:57Among them we have, among the evacuees,
20:0010 of female sex, 4 male and 86 unidentified.
20:06We have 2 minors, 12 seniors and 86 unidentified.
20:12The filiatory data has not yet been taken, basically this,
20:15but at least we know, this official information is confirmed,
20:19that there are 2 minors among the evacuees
20:22and transferred to the health center, which is the Argerich.
20:26There were 14 attendants in the place and, as we said, 35 mobile facilities,
20:32that is, even 2 more than were initially assumed.
20:3635 mobile facilities in a building of 54 floors, Facundo, 54.
20:42Well, a great deployment is developing the SAME there in the place,
20:47with these numbers that Marina marked, I understand that even Crescenti himself is there,
20:51as usual, at the front of the operation.
20:54Let's see what is said, let's see if we can record something.
20:57Look how they are going through all that area, which is a square area, right?
21:07Yes, and look at the tension in the square of those who have the slightest symptoms.
21:12Let's see, let's hear what happens there in the place, the 107 ambulances,
21:16people who were displaced directly to the benches of the park,
21:23known as the Argentine Women's Park.
21:27And this is happening live, we reiterate, with two minors with respiratory difficulties
21:34who had to be transferred to different hospitals in the area, right?
21:39This is happening now, we reiterate, Puerto Madero, fire in tower Renoir 2,
21:45floor 10, 12, the beginning is not clear either, but it probably reached floors 10, 11 and 12.
21:52And look at how it has been assembled in the nearby square,
21:59as a kind of unit to go attending to the first neighbors.
22:06Yes, as we are confirmed, the SAME arrived very quickly,
22:11very quickly, with at least 33 mobile units,
22:15some official part has 35, and it remains to be checked
22:20if the fireman is still working at the height, until a few minutes ago there were 20 working at the height,
22:25supposedly doing a kind of mapping or tracking to see if someone was trapped in the place,
22:32although the official sources of the city of Buenos Aires realize that they would all be evacuated.
22:37Yes, you know that there is a particular marine image that is several of the windows
22:41where firefighters work are giving, let's say,
22:46they leave to the sight that there have been trapped people
22:50because they have had to break several of the windows
22:54to be able to surely allow people to breathe
22:58and not inhale that monoxide that is moving and all that toxic smoke that is seen there in the place.
23:03There are some indications of the firefighters who work at the height
23:08that they are marking as if the operation would begin to be successful, right?
23:12Exactly, exactly, according to the first police part,
23:16a dense amount of smoke that made it difficult to precisely identify the igneous focus.
23:22It also mentions that the emergency personnel are working in the place,
23:26performing inspection and control tasks, this comes to what you were telling Facundo,
23:31there was a need to break windows to enter and, well,
23:34to guarantee the air of those who were still there.
23:38And there are some neighbors who are telling us, Marina,
23:41that the firefighters who are working at the height
23:45mark and make signs down as if the operation begins to be successful,
23:52at least in the fire pit, which is what interests them the most in these places,
23:56which is that fire that until a few minutes ago looked so intense at the height, right?
24:01Sure, and then the whole stage of expertise will come to understand the origin,
24:06if indeed, as the strongest hypothesis says, it was a technical failure,
24:11there are those who risk more and say that it originated,
24:14it would have originated in some air conditioning equipment,
24:17and above all, why the alarms failed, the preventive mechanisms
24:22and the fire suffocation mechanisms that buildings of just 10 years old have.
24:27Well, and they realize that at least the reach of the fire
24:32between the igneous focus and the smoke, all that dense residual smoke
24:37that you are seeing, reached at least between 7 and 8 floors,
24:42with which, if it started at 10, it probably reached 17, 18,
24:47with intensity and concern.
24:50From there up, the situation was not so problematic, right?
24:54According to the part of the Argerich, there are 100 patients treated there,
24:5950 of them are still under control, and we were saying,
25:04at least two minors, it is not ruled out that there are more,
25:08but at least two minors is the information they give us.
25:11Well, it is worth recapping the data of the 100 evacuated patients,
25:1750 patients are under control, and here, well,
25:21sources from the government of the city tell us,
25:24the fire has just been almost completely extinguished,
25:28there is only, obviously, the logical smoke left,
25:31after a fact of these characteristics, which is starting to be good news.
25:35From there, we will have to see what results the preliminary reports
25:40of the expertise provide, right?
25:44Of course, because, well, it can be simply a fatality,
25:48a technical failure, but it is not ruled out that there is
25:53some kind of responsibility of those, both of the builders
25:57and of those responsible for the maintenance of what should have been
26:02the control of the start of the fire.
26:05So, we are waiting, we want to know if there are still firefighters
26:09working at a height, we were shocked by the images of the broken windows,
26:13because that speaks of the fact that there were still people
26:16who needed oxygen and who needed to be evacuated,
26:20we are waiting to recover the image of the firefighters working at a height,
26:24and also to receive news from Argerich about the health of these 5 patients
26:30who were in critical condition, Facundo.
26:32Yes, and to look at the firefighters who are working, who are inside.
26:36From the information we have, the neighbors have all been evacuated
26:41in their entirety, now we are going to review the figures that Marina had
26:45about what we know about the evacuees, but there are firefighters
26:51still working there in the place, fighting, of course, the fire,
26:57and they are the ones who managed to get these 100 neighbors
27:01out of one of the most important towers in Marina de la Capital Federal,
27:05one of the highest.
27:07Yes, and one of the highest and new, because talking about 10 years
27:11of antiquity for a building of these characteristics,
27:13and of this value, the square meter, you imagine, Facundo,
27:17that there are many people, there are people who lost their entire apartment,
27:22you said this originated in a room on a floor between 10 and 12,
27:28it could not be controlled, there was no way, the building was not prepared,
27:33all the fire control systems failed,
27:36all the possibilities of preventing it from spreading failed,
27:40now there are, as Cristian Banet said, at least 10 apartments taken,
27:4510 floors, 10 apartments taken, and of course this,
27:49thank God for now, it is not a tragedy,
27:52there is no need to lament fatal victims, but it is a disaster
27:56in the sense that there are people who have nowhere to live.
27:59Parque Mujeres Argentinas has become a place of attention
28:03to the open sky by the emergency system of the city of Buenos Aires,
28:07there you can clearly see, like many of them,
28:10especially those who do not require a more intensive treatment,
28:15they are sitting there, recovering surely,
28:20recovering surely from this moment,
28:23using some of the public spaces of the squares,
28:26look, and the doctors working,
28:30you see some women, you see some routine control,
28:35some neighbors, Marina with a face of, of course, concern,
28:39all these you are seeing, they are not doctors?
28:42They are all doctors, until a few minutes ago,
28:45the possibility of having to enter the building was evaluated,
28:49it is not clear if because part of the evacuees
28:52still remain inside the building or not,
28:55for now they are waiting in a kind of tense calm,
29:00and we will continue to update information.
29:02Well, here I confirm to you, Marina,
29:05that the fire, already preliminary autopsy report,
29:09sorry, preliminary autopsy report,
29:13the fire started, according to the official sources,
29:19the disaster occurred on the 11th floor,
29:22it generated a dense amount of smoke,
29:25which at first made it difficult to identify precisely,
29:30on the 12th, a dormitory,
29:33and on the 13th, in a similar extension,
29:38we understand that it is a service dormitory,
29:43there was also the fire that had spread.
29:46Emergency personnel work,
29:49who are carrying out inspection and control tasks,
29:53as well as civil defense and the SAME,
29:55which so far reported the number of evacuees
29:59that we have been having with minors involved.
30:02Yes, and we add an information,
30:05at this time the city reports
30:08and reiterates the request not to go through the place,
30:11not to go through the area,
30:14because today the risk, the danger,
30:17is that glass is falling, Facundo,
30:20glass is falling that exploded due to the heat,
30:23they needed to be broken by the firefighters,
30:26but glass is falling, do not approach the area,
30:29Cristian, do we reconnect with him?
30:32Cristian, are you there?
30:34Here we are, here we are updating this information,
30:37what we have been handling, as you are also saying,
30:40there are more than 100 evacuees,
30:43of which 50 are under control,
30:46it is about 10 women and 4 men,
30:49of which 2 of them are minors,
30:51we are going to bring tranquility to the population,
30:54the people who were evacuated, who are under control,
30:57they have no health problems,
31:00they are in good health, they do not risk their lives,
31:03so for that reason we stay calm
31:06and we bring tranquility and redundancy
31:09to the people who are watching America 24
31:12and have relatives in that tower,
31:15they are all in good health,
31:18they were attended by 35 SAME units,
31:21and what the SAME asks for is the following,
31:24as the Government of the City of Buenos Aires asks,
31:27evacuate the area, not only for what you said Marina,
31:30because of the glass that is falling,
31:33but they also have to leave the sidewalk free,
31:36the sidewalk, especially the avenue Azucena Villaflor
31:39to take Paseo del Bajo, in case it is necessary
31:42to transfer someone urgently to the Argerich Hospital,
31:45that is why the sidewalk is asked to be released,
31:48but we bring tranquility to all the people
31:51who are out of danger,
31:54and this is the most important information at this time.
31:57Cris, attention, because if production confirms me,
32:00we are going to start putting images, practically live,
32:03of what is happening inside the building,
32:06Torre, Renoir 2, Puerto Madero,
32:09panic in this skyscraper,
32:12with doctors who have to attend people in the place,
32:15look, exclusive images of AMERA 24 with ambient sound,
32:18Marina is working, room by room,
32:21look,
32:24because obviously,
32:27although the fire would be beginning to be controlled,
32:30it is still working hard in the place,
32:33to see
32:36how to favor,
32:39that's why they break the glass, obviously,
32:42so that the smoke begins to dissipate,
32:45there, they explain to me that the conditions,
32:48the proximity with the river and the outskirts of the place,
32:51favors so much the possibility
32:54that the smoke can be dissipated quickly,
32:57to be able to continue moving forward,
33:00but the number of families that are going to have difficulty,
33:03their return home.
33:06In fact, the inhabitation of the whole tower,
33:09because the power supply cut, well, it is obvious,
33:12and it will be difficult to restore it,
33:15but now what the firefighters are doing
33:18is an inside-out work, a meticulous work,
33:21but it takes at least 10 floors,
33:24and they have to go square meter by square meter,
33:27turning off the possibility
33:30that any flame, any spark,
33:33turns on something that is highly combustible,
33:36like a curtain, a carpet, a chair, a bed, a mattress,
33:39then it is a precision tracking work,
33:42and well, again, the heroism of the firefighters.
33:45Of course, we are already inside, look at the images,
33:48what you are seeing is an exclusive image,
33:51that is putting on air 24 del Trabajo,
33:54incessant firefighters inside,
33:57protected, of course, and trying to move forward,
34:00environment by environment,
34:03of at least 7 floors, very large, very wide,
34:06that have been reached by the fire.
34:09And now in a few minutes, yes,
34:12they are the firefighters of the city of Buenos Aires,
34:15and now in a few minutes they will see this image
34:18that we realized, of one of the windows,
34:21broken, to go working
34:24in the smoke that is dissipating, right?
34:27Exactly, exactly, we remember the warning
34:30of the city government not to approach the area,
34:33as Cristian said, to leave the esplanade free,
34:36and that they can continue doing their job,
34:39the fire units and S.A.M.E.,
34:42and also to avoid any type of accident,
34:45because glass continues to fall,
34:48because the area is not safe,
34:51especially for transgenders,
34:54because it is really risky to go through the door
34:57of this building, so the warning and clarification are worth it.
35:00The image of the firefighters working from the inside
35:03is very shocking, very shocking,
35:06because they are trying to leave the situation
35:09absolutely controlled, so that later
35:12the peritage starts, and well, the reconstruction tasks,
35:15which will surely be complex,
35:18and we will see if it is necessary to evacuate
35:21for reasons of security
35:24and power cut.
35:27Well, so far, 10 women, 4 identified men,
35:30and a lot of people, so far, unidentified.
35:33Pay attention to that,
35:36because it is known,
35:39I am passing to production an image
35:42of how they had to work in one of the windows,
35:45which was what we just marked,
35:48how they had to work in the windows
35:51and that, Marina, now one understands
35:54the fall of the windows, beyond the windows
35:57reached and destroyed by the fire itself, right?
36:00Exactly, exactly, messages and information
36:03are still arriving, there are two towers,
36:06this is the Renoir 2, for now, apparently,
36:09the Renoir 1 does not register affection or complications,
36:12so that to bring peace of mind
36:15to those who have relatives or neighbors in the tower next door,
36:18but the truth is that the destruction of the fire
36:21is shocking in tower 2
36:24and, well, the firefighters are still working
36:27to guarantee the total extinction of the fire
36:30inside the building.
36:33That idea appears again, Marina, that someone told you early
36:36that everything would have started in a mess
36:39linked to air conditioning,
36:42and generally they are buildings that require
36:45many teams, even possibly
36:48central teams per unit,
36:51and that's why, in the last days,
36:54although today the heat was very low,
36:57they have reheated and there was something there
37:00in some machine room, we repeat,
37:03this is Puerto Madero, floor 11, 12
37:06and from there up, what we can actually observe
37:09from here, right?
37:12Exactly, well, we are talking about
37:15at least 100, 50 people were transferred to the Argerich,
37:18until a while ago they remained under observation,
37:21in a more delicate situation due to the amount
37:24of black smoke they inhaled
37:27and the impact on their respiratory tract
37:30that this could have produced.
37:33We are not in a position to say that they are out of danger,
37:36but yes, that there have been no fatal victims
37:39and that there are no people in critical condition
37:42according to what they have been telling us so far,
37:45it is information in development and we want to be cautious with it.
37:48And there, an image of one of the windows
37:51has been found, this has been,
37:54if one looks at it floor by floor,
37:57it is in effect with similar images.
38:00Exactly.
38:03Broken windows that have been used
38:06to try to dissipate a smoke that was complicating
38:09the people who were there in the place,
38:12which we repeat, was completely evacuated.
