India Backs Venezuela After Earthquakes: India Extends Full Support to Venezuela After Devastating Twin Earthquakes

India Backs Venezuela After Earthquakes: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has expressed deep sorrow over the devastating twin earthquakes that struck Venezuela and assured the country of India’s complete support during this difficult period. In a message shared on X, Modi conveyed heartfelt condolences to the people of Venezuela and its government, stating that India stands ready to provide humanitarian and medical assistance whenever required.

The powerful earthquakes caused extensive destruction across several parts of the country, leaving buildings damaged and emergency services under immense pressure. Authorities have launched large scale rescue and relief operations while assessing the full extent of the disaster.

According to the United States Geological Survey, the twin earthquakes measuring 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude struck within a minute of each other on Wednesday evening. The epicenter was located west of Moron city. The impact was so intense that strong tremors were reported across a vast region, with vibrations reaching as far as the Amazon rainforest in Brazil, nearly 1700 kilometers away.

Several cities, including the capital Caracas, witnessed the collapse of numerous buildings. Venezuela’s acting President Delcy Rodriguez confirmed that multiple states suffered significant property damage. She also announced the closure of Simon Bolivar International Airport after it sustained serious damage during the earthquakes.

As a precaution, educational institutions across the country have been closed. The government has also issued medical emergency orders directing healthcare workers nationwide to report for emergency duty as rescue efforts continue and officials work to restore essential services in the affected regions.
