Two major earthquakes, both exceeding magnitude 7, struck Venezuela Wednesday evening, causing widespread destruction and trapping individuals under rubble. Dramatic footage captured the extent of the damage as buildings collapsed across the country. Significant damage was reported at the Simon Bolivar International Airport near the capital, Maiquetia, Venezuela’s primary air travel hub. Authorities have not yet released comprehensive reports on casualties or the full extent of the devastation. The earthquakes triggered panic and prompted immediate emergency response efforts. Further aftershocks are anticipated, raising concerns about the stability of already compromised structures.
