Over 1,600 search and rescue teams from various international locations have arrived in Venezuela to aid efforts in locating survivors trapped under rubble following recent earthquakes. Oliver Blanco, Venezuela’s deputy minister for Europe and America, reported that the incoming teams arrived via 17 flights, with an expectation of 25 additional flights within the next 24 hours. Blanco expressed gratitude for the international support and solidarity shown to the Venezuelan people during this challenging period.
Rescue operations are being conducted collaboratively by specialized teams from numerous countries, including Mexico, the United States, El Salvador, Switzerland, Colombia, Spain, Ecuador, Chile, the Dominican Republic, and Panama. These coordinated efforts are focused on the critical task of the search for survivors across the affected areas of Venezuela. In separate developments, a premature baby was successfully rescued from the debris of a collapsed structure approximately 32 hours after the devastating sequence of earthquakes struck the nation.
The arrival of these extensive international teams underscores the scale of the humanitarian response mounted in Venezuela. Authorities continue to coordinate the efforts of all participating search teams to maximize the chances of finding those impacted by the disaster.
