The United Nations has assessed the physical damage caused by recent earthquakes in Venezuela at $6.7 billion. This figure represents approximately six percent of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The assessment, released Saturday, quantifies the economic impact of the twin earthquakes that recently struck the country. The damage includes destruction to infrastructure and property. This substantial financial loss poses a significant challenge to Venezuela’s already strained economy. Further assessments are expected to determine the full extent of the humanitarian needs and long-term recovery requirements. The UN report highlights the scale of devastation and the resources needed for rebuilding efforts.
