LA GUAIRA, Venezuela (AP) — Six days after two devastating consecutive earthquakes struck Venezuela, hundreds of rescuers from the country and other nations are racing against time to find survivors beneath the debris. So far, the 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude quakes have left at least 1,719 dead and more than 5,000 injured. Over 50,000 people are reported missing by their families, a figure that has not changed since Monday. Interim President Delcy Rodríguez announced that rescue teams from Jordan rescued a three-year-old boy who had been trapped under the rubble for six days in La Guaira. The government-run channel Venezuela Televisión shared a video of the rescue on its X account. Rodríguez noted that more than 3,300 rescuers have arrived in Venezuela, along with 140 dogs and 700,000 tons of humanitarian aid. She stated that over 75,000 families have been affected by the earthquakes.
