BEIRUT — It seemed like all hope was lost.
But after 15 hours buried under the rubble of his home in Beirut, Imad Atar was miraculously pulled out alive by a civil defense team Wednesday, punching the air weakly with joy as crowds clapped, cried and cheered in an emotional display.
Drenched in sweat from the August sun, the team of volunteers used pickaxes and shovels to dig Atar out from under the rubble of his home in the Geitawi neighborhood, in the east of the Lebanese capital.
A roar of joy reverberated through the streets as the volunteers screamed “he’s alive!” and pulled him out along with items from his former home — a pair of slippers, children’s toys, and jewelry.
