Short on Time and Tools, a Caracas Community Rallies to Find Survivors

Following a devastating earthquake that struck Venezuela's capital, residents of a middle-class neighborhood in Caracas have come together to search for survivors on their own. Lacking both time and professional equipment, volunteers are using drills, picks, and hammers to break through concrete rubble. The community has mobilized in the hope of finding people trapped under the debris. This grassroots effort highlights the strength and solidarity of the community in times of crisis, as official rescue services have yet to arrive in full force.
