The European Union has sent rescue teams and emergency aid to Venezuela following two powerful earthquakes that struck the country on June 24, causing widespread destruction and many casualties.
Eight EU member states — Czechia, Spain, Italy, France, Luxembourg, Germany, Portugal, and the Netherlands — are providing support through the EU Civil Protection Mechanism.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said the EU stands with the people of Venezuela during the disaster, thanking member states for quickly sending firefighters, rescue dogs, medical teams, and other emergency assistance.
More than 520 emergency responders have been mobilised from the eight countries. Italy is also sending medical personnel, while Luxembourg is providing telecommunications, shelter, and energy equipment.
The EU has also activated its Copernicus satellite emergency mapping service to help assess damage and support rescue operations.
The European Union said it is ready to provide further assistance as the situation develops.
