Argentine footballer Lucas Trejo has been affected by the devastating seismic activity that struck Venezuela earlier this week, reportedly losing his partner and two young children. The 38-year-old was searching for his family—Yanina Maranella and their children, Aaron and Ainhoa—after the building where they were staying collapsed during the double tremors that impacted the country on Wednesday. At the time of the disaster, Trejo was in the Venezuelan capital, Caracas, participating in a championship match with his club, Deportivo La Guaira.
Reports indicate that following the collapse, his brother and father traveled to the area of Playa Grande to assist with the ongoing search and rescue operations. The scale of the crisis has prompted significant international concern. According to the United Nations, official figures confirm that the number of victims has reached approximately 1,430 people.
Furthermore, the organization estimates that the number of missing persons stands at an alarming 50,000. The ongoing search efforts continue amid the widespread damage caused by the tremors. The incident has deeply impacted the Argentine footballer, who has been central to the narrative of loss and recovery for his family.
Authorities and aid organizations remain mobilized to locate survivors and provide assistance to those affected by the powerful tremors that continue to impact Venezuelan communities.
