“Emerging from the Debris: A Survivor’s Chronicle”

by Hannah Kriel
July 26, 2024

A building collapse in George, South Africa on May 6 killed 33 people and left others injured. Among the survivors was Delvin Safers, a young electrician who was buried under debris for over a day. Now, Safers is preparing to share his harrowing story of resilience and survival in a book, which will serve as a tribute to the unified efforts of a community affected by the tragedy. The investigation into the incident is ongoing, and Safers is currently undergoing physiotherapy for his injuries.
