Venezuela Earthquake Toll Nears 3,900

The death toll from the June 24 earthquakes in Venezuela has risen to 3,889, with health risks mounting as survivors crowd into shelters.

The twin earthquakes that struck coastal Venezuela caused catastrophic damage, leaving tens of thousands homeless.

The World Health Organization warned of disease outbreaks and lack of clean water, as international aid efforts struggle to meet the scale of the disaster.

Radar data from the NISAR satellite shows significant ground displacement in the affected areas.
