A week later, the death toll from the earthquake in Venezuela has risen to nearly 2,300
Jedna nedelja nakon devastatornih potresa koji su udarila u Venezuelu, broj žrtava porasao je na najmanje 2.295, dok je broj ozlijeđenih dostigao 11.267, prema izjavama predsjednika Nacionalne skupštine Jorge Rodrigeza. Više od 26.000 hitnih službi i više od 17.000 volontera distribuirano je u oštećenim područjima. Potraga za preživjelima traje, iako se nade u pronalaženju više zarobljenih u ruševinama smanjuju, jer katastrofa ulazi u drugi tjedan. U skladu sa podacima, do sada je 6.461 osoba izvučeno žive iz ruševina. Od 24. lipnja, kada su dva potresa magnituda 7,2 i 7,5 pogodila Venezuelu, vlasti su zabilježili 782 naknadna potresa. Iako se frekvencija i intenzitet smanjili, dužnosnici su upozorili da rizik od još jednog snažnog potresa nije u potpunosti prošao. Panamerička zdravstvena organizacija (PAHO) upozorila je da bi katastrofa mogla pogoršati javnozdravstvenu krizu, uz napomenu da stotine hiljada ljudi još uvijek trebaju medicinsku pomoć. Organizacija apelira za 24 milijuna dolara međunarodne pomoći za nabavu lijekova, cjepiva i stabilizaciju zdravstvenih usluga u najteže pogođenim regijama tokom sljedećih šest mjeseci.

In Venezuela's federal state of La Guaira, a father and his son were rescued from rubble four days after devastating earthquakes struck the region. The earthquakes, which hit hardest in this coastal area, have killed at least 1,500 people, with thousands more reported missing. Rescue efforts lasted 12 hours, with teams carefully navigating unstable ruins using specialized search cameras to locate survivors. A member of the French Civil Protection team noted the extreme weakness of the victims, who had been trapped under debris for four days, emphasizing the slow pace of the rescue operation. The same French and American rescue teams previously saved a mother and her nine-month-old baby earlier in the day. At least 33 people have been rescued over the weekend, but tens of thousands remain unaccounted for. Experts warn that the likelihood of finding survivors drops drastically after 72 hours following an earthquake.
