“The official death toll from Venezuela’s devastating twin earthquakes rose to nearly 4,500 on Sunday, as the government reported more than 19,500 people were now living in camps due to the destruction. The latest toll offered by the government on its official Telegram account listed 4,490 as dead, about 150 higher than the day before, and 16,740 injured. It did not give an estimate for the number of people still unaccounted for. On 24 June, the magnitude 7.2 and 7.5 earthquakes hit Caracas and the coastal state of La Guaira, flattening entire high-rise apartment blocks into layers of rubble.” (07/13/26)
