Following two powerful earthquakes – magnitude 7.1 and 7.5 – that struck Venezuela within a minute of each other, Israel is preparing to send a humanitarian aid delegation. The decision was made under the direction of Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar, with the Foreign Ministry currently assessing the situation. Initial reports suggest the earthquakes have caused widespread damage and potential for a significant loss of life. U.S. estimates indicate the death toll could reach tens of thousands. Israel’s response aims to provide assistance to those affected by the natural disaster. Further details regarding the composition and timing of the delegation are expected following the ongoing evaluation.
