The Icelandic Red Cross sends representatives to Venezuela

The Red Cross in Iceland has sent delegate Karla Johnson to Venezuela to oversee relief efforts related to the aftermath of earthquakes that struck northern Iceland on June 24th. The earthquakes caused widespread damage, resulting in over 3,500 confirmed deaths, numerous missing persons, and hundreds of displaced families. International rescue teams have been searching for survivors for ten days, but conditions remain dire with hospitals overwhelmed and thousands stranded. Karla Johnson, who holds degrees in international relations and project management, previously worked with the Red Cross in Iceland focusing on refugee and international protection issues. Her new role includes improving access to essential services and ensuring aid reaches those most affected. The International Red Cross has allocated approximately 312 million Icelandic krona from its disaster fund for initial relief efforts in Venezuela, with additional funding expected for further operations.
