Amman, June 27 (Petra) — The death toll from two powerful
earthquakes that struck Venezuela’s capital, Caracas, and surrounding
regions on Wednesday has risen to 1,430, Jorge Rodriguez, the
president of the Venezuelan National Assembly, said on Saturday.
In a statement broadcast on Venezuelan state television, Rodriguez
said another 3,200 people were injured, while 3,100 others have been
left homeless by the disaster.
The United Nations estimated in a statement on Friday that more than
50,000 people remain missing. Rescue teams from at least 17 countries
are currently deploying to participate in search operations for
survivors, following the Venezuelan government’s declaration of a
state of emergency across the country.
