International Rescue Teams Race Against Time in Venezuelan Earthquake Response]
Venezuelan rescuers are working against a critical deadline to locate survivors following the earthquake, as the likelihood of finding people alive diminishes with each passing hour.
Approximately 2,000 search and rescue personnel have been deployed from around the world, including teams from the UK, Mexico, Costa Rica, France, and Spain, joining the emergency response efforts.
The operation faces significant logistical challenges in coordinating international resources and reaching affected areas, according to the BBC’s Dan Johnson reporting from Cucuta, Colombia, which borders Venezuela.
Venezuela’s acting President Delcy Rodríguez maintained overnight that she still holds “faith and hope” that survivors will be rescued from the rubble.
