Volcano of Fire halts Guatemala search for missing
Rescuers paused on Thursday in San Miguel Los Lotes as climatic hazards and still-hot ash hindered recovery work after the Volcano of Fire eruption. Officials said 72 hours had passed since the eruption, with 99 confirmed dead and about 200 missing. Families, including Oscar Chavez’s, continued to search debris with improvised tools while investigators probed emergency protocol. The United States pledged aid, food, water, and sanitation support, and some burn victims were flown to Shriner’s Hospital in Galveston.
