Venezuela was hit by two powerful tremors on June 24, with magnitudes of 7.2 and 7.5, occurring within the span of one minute. More than five weeks after the disaster, the removal of debris continues, and authorities are still recording thousands of missing persons. The death toll therefore keeps changing, as rescue and search operations have not yet concluded. lidovky.cz ↗
Tens of thousands of injured and extensive damage have put pressure on both hospitals and emergency shelters. Some of the people who lost their homes remain in makeshift conditions and in camps. The situation particularly affects areas where the earthquakes damaged residential buildings and infrastructure.
Further developments will depend on the pace of debris removal, the search for missing persons, and ensuring basic assistance for residents without homes. The updated death toll shows that the aftermath of the June tremors ranks among the most severe natural disasters Venezuela has faced in recent times. Der Standard ↗
