Venezuela starts demolishing quake-hit buildings

The Venezuelan authorities have begun demolishing buildings in La Guaira State, which is the area most affected by the two earthquakes that struck the country on June 24. The earthquakes resulted in the death of over 5,500 people, the destruction of 190 buildings, and damage to another 856 structures. The operations commenced following a security cordon established by the forces, during which a partially collapsed leaning building was blown up, as it posed a threat to lives and property.
