The Rescue SA urban search and rescue team returns from its rescue mission in earthquake-devastated Haiti today.
The team will land at Pretoria’s Waterkloof Air Force base. The 39-man team includes a structural engineer, two doctors, three dog handlers with sniffer dogs and rescue practitioners.
Meanwhile, Gift of the Givers says a fourth search-and-rescue team from the South African disaster relief organisation is due to leave for Haiti.
Chairperson Imtiaz Sooliman says the 20-strong team includes surgeons. They will take orthopaedic equipment to the island.
