A significant 7.1 magnitude earthquake struck Venezuela on Tuesday, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS). The quake occurred off the coast of Venezuela, near the city of Cumana. While initial reports suggest moderate damage, a tsunami threat was briefly issued and later lifted for nearby coastal areas. Authorities are currently assessing the full extent of the damage and potential casualties. The quake was felt across several neighboring Caribbean islands, including Trinidad and Tobago, Grenada, and Curaçao. No immediate reports of widespread devastation have surfaced, but ongoing evaluations are expected to reveal a clearer picture of the impact in the coming hours.
