Miraculous Stories of Survival Emerge After Earthquakes

Miguel MedinaSurvivors are being pulled from the rubble in shocking miracle rescues in the days following Wednesday’s devastating earthquakes in Venezuela. Among those rescued were a mother and her 18-month-old child, who were pulled from the rubble after 32 hours, and a 21-year-old man who was found alive five days after the earthquakes, CNN’s Wolf Blitzer reported. The rescues come well beyond the window when survivors are expected to be found alive. “Everyone knows that three days is normally the last moment that you can find a survivor alive from an earthquake disaster like this one,” CNN contributor Stefano Possebon said. As of Monday, the death toll of the two earthquakes, which struck 39 seconds apart and had magnitudes of 7.2 and 7.5, had climbed to 1,700, CNN reported. Possebon reported that Venezuela lacks the capacity for a large-scale response, and is relying heavily on search-and-rescue teams and significant foreign aid.Read it at MediaIteRead more at The Daily Beast.

"Utter Devastation": Thousands Feared Dead in Venezuela After Double Earthquakes

Thousands are feared dead in Venezuela after back-to-back powerful earthquakes struck the country Wednesday evening, collapsing buildings in the capital Caracas and surrounding areas. Venezuela’s acting President Delcy Rodríguez has declared a state of emergency as rescue workers frantically search for survivors in the rubble of “dozens” of collapsed buildings. Historian Alejandro Velasco, who has family in Venezuela, reports that “many Venezuelans abroad are trying to get in touch with their loved ones in Venezuela and are having a hard time doing so.” The current death toll is at 164, with 1,000 people injured, but the U.S. Geological Survey warns there’s a high chance the death toll could rise into the tens of thousands — or even top 100,000.
