Rescuers are aggressively searching through the debris to find 24 students, between the ages of five and eight, who went missing after Plaza Towers Elementary School took a hit during the horrific storm on May 20, according to Mail Online.

Hundreds of homes, a hospital and another school were among the buildings flattened by the 200mph winds, leaving residents of the town stunned and devastated.

“Our hearts are broken for the parents that are wondering about the state of their children that had been in the schools that have been hit today,” Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin said. “I know that there are families wondering where their loved ones are.”

She also said that rescuers were “looking under every single piece of debris” for the missing.

Rescue teams reported hearing cries for help under the flattened school, but those yells allegedly stopped around 6:30 p.m. on May 20. The missing children are feared to be dead.
