Rodriguez announces the resumption of commercial flights at Caracas airport

The interim president of Venezuela, Delcy Rodriguez, announced that commercial flights will soon resume at the Caracas airport, which was damaged by two earthquakes on June 24. The Simon Bolivar International Airport in La Guaira, north of Caracas, has been partially open for humanitarian aid flights. Rodriguez stated she ordered the activation of an alternative plan to quickly restart commercial flights on a parallel runway. The earthquakes killed over 3,500 people and destroyed many buildings, particularly in La Guaira. U.S. soldiers are assisting in the airport's recovery efforts and repairs to the port of La Guaira, which also suffered significant damage. The U.S. ambassador to Caracas, John Barrett, said American aid to Venezuela after the earthquakes exceeds $310 million and praised the Venezuelan government's response despite criticisms of delays and inefficiencies in aid distribution.
