The agonizing wait for the family of the presumed last missing Surfside victim
CNN
On Saturday it will be one month since the Surfside condo collapse, and the family of Estelle Hedaya tells CNN she is the final victim that authorities have yet to find and identify.
"The tough part is seeing my parents like this, day after day," her brother, Ikey Hedaya, told CNN. "I just want my sister to be at peace and get the honor and respect she deserves." Ikey says that the family is guided by their faith and have found some comfort that Estelle, 54, was "chosen for something very important." Still, they need closure so they can properly mourn her.
The alleged drug traffickers killed by the US military in a strike on September 2 were heading to link up with another, larger vessel that was bound for Suriname — a small South American country east of Venezuela – the admiral who oversaw the operation told lawmakers on Thursday according to two sources with direct knowledge of his remarks.

The two men killed as they floated holding onto their capsized boat in a secondary strike against a suspected drug vessel in early September did not appear to have radio or other communications devices, the top military official overseeing the strike told lawmakers on Thursday, according to two sources with direct knowledge of his congressional briefings.
