VENEZUELA EARTHQUAKE: Residents Dig Through Rubble to Search for Family Members | Times Now World
Venezuelans searched through the rubble of collapsed buildings on Friday as the death toll from the country's devastating twin earthquakes climbed to at least 920, with more than 51,000 people reported missing. Survivors in some of the hardest-hit areas said they had seen few government rescue teams and were relying on their own efforts to find loved ones trapped beneath the debris. The 7.2- and 7.5-magnitude earthquakes struck 39 seconds apart on Wednesday, triggering widespread destruction across northern Venezuela. Aid agencies warned that the first 48 to 72 hours are critical for finding survivors as international rescue teams continue arriving to support search operations.
