VTV.vn - A collapsed dam at a Brazilian iron mine on January 25th has left 58 people killed, and 305 others missing. The volunteers from across the nation are giving out water for rescuers and relatives of victims in the tailings dam disaster.

They also collect donations including clothes and other supplies at the rescue center in Brumadinho, the state of Minas Gerais. According to the local fire department on Sunday, chances of finding more survivors of Friday's tailings dam disaster are slim. But the rescue team involving soldiers, sniff dogs and sonar devices and other equipment are still working against the clock to search for people alive.
