Venezuela earthquake death toll reaches 1719
The death toll from the two earthquakes that struck Venezuela five days ago has risen to 1,719 casualties, with over 5,034 people injured and thousands missing, according to statements by the President of the National Assembly, Jorge Rodriguez. A total of 774 buildings have been completely or partially damaged. Rescue teams continue their search for survivors despite the decreased chances of finding anyone alive after more than 72 hours since the disaster. Photos also showed the destruction of all buildings in the affected neighborhoods. The country is suffering extensive damage from the two earthquakes, which registered magnitudes of 7.2 and 7.5, amid sharp criticism of the authorities' failure to effectively respond to the catastrophe.
