Israeli army forms 3D images of fallen Florida condo to find victims
NY Post ^ | June 30, 2021 | Yaron Steinbuch

The Israeli military has created an intricate set of three-dimensional mapping diagrams of the collapsed Florida condo building and the surrounding disaster site as part of its efforts to assist local authorities in finding victims in the rubble.

The Israel Defense Forces provided The Post with various images of the remaining portion of the gutted Champlain Towers South in Surfside, where the death toll stood at 16 as of Wednesday afternoon.

There are still 147 people unaccounted for, Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said at a press briefing.

Capt. Uri Jospe, a reserves civilian population officer, told The Post in a phone interview from Florida that the images were created by the Israeli military’s secretive Unit 9900, which is tasked with gathering visual intelligence, including geographical data from satellites and planes.

In Israel, the 3-D maps are created by members of Unit 9900.

So the Israelis are trying to help. Good for them. But I wonder how long it will be before Ilhan Omar denounces this as some kind of Jewish plot.

After all, that’s just how Rep. Omar rolls.

How can anyone living in a condo in South Florida not be nervous now?

I mean really really nervous

A Denver lawyer, Mike Stratton, and his wife owned a condo in that building. Apparently, she spent a lot of time there, especially during COVID. She called him in the middle of the night saying the building was shaking and then she saw the swimming pool collapse. Then her phone went dead.

Hard to imagine the horror of something like that happening to a loved one.

They were effectively using a hydraulic dredge to remove the ground under the foundation. Pumping muddy water out of the parking garage, FOR DECADES.

The poor dumb fools. I won’t say they deserved to die, but they sure didn’t out compete their rivals.

There are lots of Jewish people in Miami, and maybe Israeli nationals too. Many big supporters of Israel. Israel helps with disaster relief all around the world, but I knew they would be in Miami right away.

Wait, they had a permanent dewatering system? Do you have a link to anything with more info on that? That wouldn’t necessarily be suspect, but would be interesting to see how they implemented it.

And it’s been raining here every single day. The ground is very soggy.

But my Namwah banana tree and basil plants are loving this!

I wonder how long it will be until I give half a rodent's patootie what she says.
