“On the evening of June 24th, back-to-back earthquakes struck Venezuela, with a 7.1 magnitude quake followed roughly a minute later by an even stronger 7.5 magnitude quake, centered just west of the capital. Buildings have collapsed across Caracas, where rescue crews are searching for survivors. Among the strongest quakes to hit the country in over a century, the disaster has left families displaced and communities in urgent need” (by GEM Venezuela Earthquakes)
I’m from Venezuela. Thank God my family and friends are okay, but the recent earthquake has left me heartbroken.
After 27 years of dictatorship, the country is in crisis and thousands of people need rescue and urgent support.
