I saw this post on X and decided to bring it here for experts in the field.

Looking at this building, do you think it can still be saved? If yes, what would it take to make it safe again?

Also, if it can be salvaged, are there any potential long-term effects or safety risks even after the necessary repairs?

Yes it can be saved. Na to fill up with heavy stones and reinforce the walls

If the building was going to fall it would fallen already, judging from this picture. It seems the foundation is of a different material and independent of the soil. However this pit needs to be filled back and solidified ASAP to give the walls of the foundation more support and also to prevent the walls of the foundation from erosion as a result of exposure which will soon be the case as the gash is gradually reaching the foundation wall, as observed from the picture.
