Venezuela experienced two powerful earthquakes on Wednesday evening, June 24, resulting in at least 32 fatalities and over 700 injuries, according to initial reports. The seismic activity also caused significant damage, including the collapse of the Maiqueta airport roof. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) reported a first tremor of magnitude 7.2, followed by a stronger 7.5 magnitude quake. Both occurred west of the capital, Caracas, at depths of 21.9 and 10 kilometers respectively. Local accounts described the event as the most violent in 126 years, with one resident stating, "We had the impression that the earth would never stop shaking." The USGS had previously expressed concerns about a "heavy" human toll and "significant" material damage.
