There were two strong earthquakes in Venezuela. The ground shook on Wednesday. The force was very high. The government says: 920 people are dead. Over 3300 people are hurt. The United Nations says: 50000 people are missing. The number of victims can still rise.
The situation is very bad in La Guaira. Many houses are now ruins. There is also damage in the capital city Caracas. Many people have no home. They sleep outside on the street. There is no power and no phone. Hospitals are full. They need more medicine.
Helpers look for survivors in the ruins. They use their own hands. Sometimes there is a small miracle. They saved a baby and a small girl. Help arrives from many countries. Germany sends experts and tools with planes. The helpers use dogs to find people.
