Buildings were flattened and streets cracked open.<\/p>\n<p>Families posted missing-person flyers with photos of while others shared handwritten lists of names. Venezuelans abroad struggled to make contact with relatives due to interrupted phone service in the country.<\/p>\n<p>In downtown Caracas, hundreds spent the night huddled in parks, parking lots and other open spaces.<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>A mother of three, Dayana Delgado, asked where the heavy machinery was that government officials had promised and said residents were the ones digging through crumpled buildings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to know where my child is, if he\u2019s trapped or in a shelter,\u201d she said of her missing 8-year-old son.<\/p>\n<p>Another mother sobbed and collapsed in grief as the bodies of her 3- and 10-year-old children were wrapped in blankets and carried away. Others screamed the names of the missing. Some stood in silent shock.<\/p>\n<p>Venezuelan authorities said they were diverting rescue teams from other parts of the country to La Guaira, which is no stranger to natural disasters: A 1999 mudslide killed thousands and is considered one of the country\u2019s worst natural disasters.<\/p>\n<p>In La Guaira, Cristian Carre\u00f1o stared at his charred apartment building tilting precariously to one side.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI lost everything,\u201d he said. \u201cThere are people still inside, I imagine, that couldn\u2019t get out.

Venezuela has been facing economic disarray for more than a decade and many people reject the legitimacy of the political movement Rodr\u00edguez represents.<\/p>\n<p>Rodr\u00edguez declared a state of emergency in an address to the nation late Wednesday. She said the government was creating a $200 million reconstruction fund for damaged hospitals and homes.<\/p>\n<p>While Venezuela sits near multiple fault lines, its position straddling the South American and Caribbean plates makes strong earthquakes much less common than in other parts of Latin America.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Geological Survey said both earthquakes were centered near Moron on the Caribbean coast, about 170 kilometers (105 miles) west of Caracas. The one-two punch of the quakes, combined with the shallow seismic movements, amplified the destruction, said Marcos Ferreira, a geophysicist and researcher at the Geological Survey of Brazil.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is as if I am screaming and then someone starts screaming, too. That amplifies the vibration and adds to the potential hazard,\u201d Ferreira said.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after U.N. officials in Venezuela called on the government to lift social media restrictions so people can get potentially life-saving information, Venezuelans were able to access X. The site had been blocked by Maduro since August 2024 in an attempt to suppress the exchange of information among those who rejected his claim of victory in the July presidential election.<\/p>\n<h4>Foreign governments offer assistance<\/h4>\n<p>Some 1,000 emergency responders in 25 search-and-rescue teams from across the globe are deploying to Venezuela, said Jens Laerke, a spokesperson for the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who spoke to Rodr\u00edguez following the quake, said the United States was immediately deploying assistance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a whole-of-government response. It\u2019ll be big; it\u2019ll be fast; and it\u2019ll be effective,\u201d Rubio said, while acknowledging the closure of Venezuela\u2019s main airport near Caracas created logistical challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Venezuelan TV on Friday showed the arrival of rescuers with dogs and equipment, including cameras and ground-penetrating radar, from Spain. Teams from Germany, Chile and Switzerland also landed. Turkey announced two flights will leave Istanbul on Friday with rescuers and a pair of search dogs. China also said it will provide assistance. Leaders from Qatar, Brazil, Portugal and Canada vowed to send help.<\/p>\n<p>Rescue teams from El Salvador and the Dominican Republic arrived in Venezuela on Thursday, along with rescuers and material aid from Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo country is prepared to provide the response that\u2019s needed. That\u2019s what neighboring countries are there for,\u201d Dominican air force Maj. Carlos Olivares said.<\/p>\n<p><em>Janetsky reported from Mexico City.
