Venezuela loses 5,000 lives amid IMF aid
More than 5,000 people have died in two massive earthquakes that struck Venezuela within three weeks, with magnitudes of 7.2 and 7.5. The earthquakes caused extensive damage to buildings and displaced around 20,000 people into temporary shelters. Additionally, over 16,700 individuals have been injured, and many lives are at risk due to the insufficient rescue efforts for the bodies, amid a noticeable absence of official response. Venezuela has requested that the International Monetary Fund release $346 million to fund reconstruction efforts, following the resumption of financial relations with the international organization.
