Venezuela Earthquake Crisis Deepens as Death Toll Reaches 3,889 Amid Health System Collapse

Venezuela's earthquake death toll has risen to 3,889, with 16,740 injured and 17,900 left homeless, as the country's health system struggles to cope with the disaster.

The numbers are stark: 3,889 dead, 16,740 injured, and 17,900 homeless. But behind these figures lies a humanitarian crisis that threatens to engulf Venezuela, a country already reeling from economic instability and sanctions. The earthquake that struck on June 24 has exposed the fragile state of the country's health system, which is now on the brink of collapse. According to WHO Director Jarbas Barbosa, health risks remain high due to overcrowding and lack of medical access, a situation that is being exacerbated by the sheer scale of the disaster.
