## Caption

Two massive earthquakes struck Venezuela in the space of just a few minutes on Wednesday night, bringing widespread devastation to the capital, Caracas, and surrounding towns.
 
The number of people killed has jumped to at least 920, with 3,360 injured, according to officials.
As powerful tremors collapsed high-rise buildings and flattened homes, terrified residents fled into the streets, fearing another major quake.
 
Satellite imagery captured before and after the earthquakes show how several buildings in the area were completely destroyed.
