I have no words……
This is on a Biblical scale . The amount of death and humanitarian crisis is going to be very bad.
Maduro is probably laughing at you guys.
Prayers for Venuzuela !
Now they have the opportunity to build their buildings up to standard building codes to withstand eerfquakes
Horrific. I guess #47 won’t want it now
Earthquake just happens to hit there while they are drilling for oil. 🤔
Omg, initial reports didn’t report on how bad the number of missing people are
As much as I hate to say it, out of 40,000 missing, I think they'll be lucky to find 10,000.
Donald Trump topples their government, and now in their time of need where are they?
Poor people, I am so sorry for your losses. I hope many of those still under the rubbles can still be saved. 🥺
Caracas should be immediately evacuated, its not safe and should be inhabited. Please move to outhers cities. This disastrer has happened twice and certainly will happen again., that means if your family stay in Caracas is in dangers risk of life. Move out to outhers cities.
We need to send help n relief quickly ! Don't let them starve as well … prayers for all those affected 🙏
Very sad to see this. 🫶🇨🇦 sending healing vibes. RIP to all the victims.
My thoughts and prayers to everyone affected. I'm from southern Philippines we also recently had 7magnitude earthquake 😢
Oil fracking perhaps?
I hope people would be recovered asap.
Same happened to my hometown in Philippines recently and everyday aftershocks are horrible my prayers and condolences to Venezuela
I can't help if wonder one of the many countries that wanted to have control over Venezuela and lost to the United States, used earthquake weapon technology against them
The destruction is heavy to USA- Israel- Iran month or 2 month missile and rocket war. 50000 or 40000 bodies unfounded.
prayers prayers!!!
#PRAYERS FOR ALL THE VICTIMS FOR VENEZUELA#
My condolences to the people of Venezuela
I blame it on Trump – just like the hangnail I woke up with this morning. It rained yesterday. I don't like rain – must have been Trump.
Why is us doing this to venezuela
Help those in Venezuela Lord Jesus Christ please Amen
The dude running with his phone facing him is the ultimate expression of vanity recording. 'Look at me running for my life!' So epically stupid!
Prayers for Venezuela 🙏and all of those working to recover survivors.
the death toll is too high for just 7.5 and 7.2 earthquake. i hope this is the start for a stricter building standard regulation
Trump did it
This "journalist" claims that hyperinflation only began after Chávez died, as if Venezuela's economy had been in great shape during his regime. How much longer do we have to listen to international reporters who don't actually understand the country's situation? Shame on the BBC.
