A geologist explained the cause of two recent consecutive earthquakes in Venezuela, attributing them to the rupture of an active geological fault. Andrés Folguera, speaking to LN+, stated the fault had accumulated stress over a century before releasing energy in the form of seismic activity. He indicated that the earthquakes were not unexpected given the region’s geological characteristics. Folguera cautioned that aftershocks are expected to continue in the coming days as the fault settles. The events highlight the seismic risk present in Venezuela due to active fault lines. Further monitoring of the fault’s activity is recommended to assess potential future events. The geologist’s analysis provides insight into the natural processes behind the earthquakes and the likelihood of continued tremors.
