The death toll from two powerful earthquakes that struck Venezuela's northern coast on Wednesday (24) has risen to 920, with more than 3,360 injured, international media reported. It is reported that the death toll could rise further as more than 172 people are believed to be trapped under the rubble. The province of La Guaira, home to the country's main port and international airport, has been hit hardest. The Altamira and Los Palos Grandes areas of the capital Caracas have suffered extensive damage. Hundreds of buildings, including hospitals and shopping malls, have collapsed. In this situation, the rescue of three children alive from the rubble has given people some hope. Britain, the United States, Mexico, the Netherlands and Switzerland have also sent their special rescue teams, sniffer dogs and drones to Venezuela. The United States has announced that it will provide $150 million in financial assistance and warships for the rescue operation. It is noteworthy that the United Nations (UN) is coordinating the rescue operation.
