On June 24, the coastal state of La Guaira experienced two high-magnitude earthquakes, resulting in significant loss of life and extensive structural failure.

6 月 24 日，沿海州拉瓜伊拉發生兩次高強度地震，導致嚴重傷亡與大規模建築物損毀。

The seismic sequence commenced with a 7.2-magnitude event, followed 39 seconds later by a 7.5-magnitude shock, the most potent recorded in Venezuela in over a century. This chronological proximity precipitated the collapse of numerous high-rise structures and residential complexes. Official data provided by National Assembly President Jorge Rodriguez indicates a fatality count exceeding 4,300, with 16,740 injuries and approximately 18,000 individuals rendered homeless. The United Nations has estimated that 50,000 persons remain missing, while the UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction values physical infrastructure damage at approximately $37 billion.

此次地震序列始於 7.2 級地震，隨後 39 秒發生 7.5 級強震，是委內瑞拉一個多世紀以來紀錄最強的地震。這種時間上的接近導致許多高層建築與住宅區崩塌。國民議會議長 Jorge Rodriguez 提供的官方數據顯示，死亡人數超過 4,300 人，16,740 人受傷，約 18,000 人無家可歸。聯合國估計仍有 50,000 人失蹤，而聯合國減災辦公室評估實體基礎設施的損失約為 370 億美元。

Institutional responses have been characterized by a divergence between official reporting and civilian testimony. The administration asserts that 6,462 individuals were rescued and that 86,794 families received aid, supported by the deployment of over 30,000 personnel and 2,400 international specialists. Conversely, affected residents have alleged a deficiency in state-provided heavy machinery for body recovery and a reluctance by authorities to enter unstable structures. This friction has occurred within a broader context of degraded state services resulting from a protracted economic crisis.

機構應對方面，官方報告與平民證詞之間存在分歧。政府聲稱救出 6,462 人，有 86,794 個家庭獲得援助，並部署了超過 30,000 名人員與 2,400 名國際專家。相反，受災居民指稱政府缺乏用於搜尋遺體的重型機械，且當局不願進入不穩定的建築物。這種摩擦發生在長期經濟危機導致國家服務惡化的更廣泛背景之下。

To mitigate the fiscal burden of recovery, interim president Delcy Rodríguez has sought a rapprochement with international entities regarding frozen assets, specifically requesting the release of 30 tons of gold held under UK sanctions. Simultaneously, the United Nations has appealed for nearly $300 million in emergency funding to assist 1.3 million people, noting that non-governmental organizations had previously been subject to state repression.

為了減輕恢復工作的財政負擔，臨時總統 Delcy Rodríguez 尋求與國際實體就凍結資產達成諒解，特別要求釋放受英國制裁而扣押的 30 噸黃金。與此同時，聯合國呼籲提供近 3 億美元的緊急資金以援助 130 萬人，並指出非政府組織此前曾受到國家打壓。

The region remains in a state of recovery, with efforts transitioning from survivor extraction to the clearance of debris and the provision of temporary housing.

該地區仍處於恢復階段，工作重點正由搜救倖存者轉向清理瓦礫與提供臨時住房。
