Venezuelans are devastated after the country’s northern coast was hit by back-to-back earthquakes, destroying several homes and buildings and leaving neighbors and families searching for their loved ones. The two earthquakes, with magnitudes of 7.2 and a 7.5, are considered to be among the strongest to hit the country in more than a century.
In videos posted to social media, people rushed out of their homes with their pets and families during the tremors and shared the destruction left behind in the aftermath. At least 164 people are confirmed to be dead and 1,000 are injured so far, but the U.S. Geographical Survey warns that the death toll could exceed 10,000.
