Scenes of panic and devastation unfolded across Venezuela after powerful 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude earthquakes struck minutes apart, forcing residents to flee buildings and sending shockwaves across the region. Dramatic videos captured homes collapsing, terrified people running through the streets, and emergency evacuations at Simón BolÃvar International Airport, which was later shut down due to damage. Acting President Delcy RodrÃguez declared a state of emergency, warning that the death toll is expected to rise as rescuers search through collapsed structures.
