The death toll from the series of earthquakes that struck Venezuela on the 24th (local time) exceeded 1,400 in three days. As the ‘golden time’ for disaster and disaster survivor rescue is coming to an end, there are concerns that the number of casualties may explode. According to the Associated Press, Venezuelan National Assembly Speaker Jorge Rodriguez announced on the 27th that the number of deaths due to a series of strong earthquakes of magnitude 7.2 and 7.5 that occurred off the northern Caribbean coast increased to 1,430. This is an increase of over 500 people compared to the announcement the previous day (920 people). The number of injured also increased to 3,238. As of this morning, the number of missing people reported by their families reached at least 68,900. The 72-hour period (6 p.m. local time on the 27th, 7 a.m. on the 28th Korean time), which is considered the ‘golden time’ for rescuing survivors after an earthquake, will also expire soon. In the northern state of La Guaira, which was severely damaged by the earthquake, rescue operations using even bare hands are underway on piles of collapsed concrete. The number dispatched from overseas countries such as Mexico, the United States, Brazil, El Salvador, and France.
