Venezuela Earthquake Claims 2,954 Lives as Death Toll Continues to Rise, Over 12,600 Injured

The death toll from Venezuela’s devastating twin earthquakes has risen to 2,954, according to official figures released on Saturday.

Fatalities increased by more than 300 from Friday, with over 16,000 injured following the June 24 disaster that toppled scores of buildings and left thousands still missing.

Thousands more are reported still missing after the June 24 shocks that toppled dozens of apartment complexes, mostly in the coastal La Guaira area north of the capital Caracas.

We pray and wish them well.
