Humanitarian aid arrives as earthquake toll in Venezuela rises
The two powerful earthquakes that struck Venezuela on Wednesday, with magnitudes of 7.2 and 7.5 respectively, caused widespread destruction and resulted in over 920 deaths, many injuries, and the displacement of more than 50,000 people. Rescue efforts have begun, involving international teams from 17 countries, as they search for survivors amid the rubble. Conditions remain challenging, and the progress is slow. The United States has also expressed support by sending a team of 250 personnel and providing financial assistance, while the local population continues to suffer from a lack of equipment and inadequate government response.
