Venezuela quake: Rescues after 4 days
Venezuela was struck by two strong earthquakes measuring 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude, resulting in the deaths of approximately 1,500 people and the destruction of 774 buildings, of which 189 were completely demolished. After about four days, a man and his son were rescued alive from beneath the rubble, amid extensive international rescue efforts that involved 86 teams from 24 countries and aid totaling 521 tons of supplies. The infrastructure was sufficiently damaged, and rescue operations continue to search for survivors, despite the decreasing chances of finding more as time passes.
