Share to ClassroomVenezuela Quake: Father and Son Saved
A man and his son were found alive in Venezuela on Sunday. They were under a fallen building for almost four days. Rescue teams from France and the United States saved them. They were among 33 people found alive over the weekend. The group also included a baby and two young boys.
Two big earthquakes hit the north coast on Wednesday evening. They broke almost 200 buildings near the sea. About 1,450 people are dead, and more than 3,000 are hurt. The best time to find people was the first three days.
Now 24 countries are sending help. They send food, water, dogs, and rescue workers. But many local people are angry. They say the help came too slowly. The United Nations says millions of people may need help.
