Summary

With little hope of finding loved ones alive, frustrated families of those affected by Venezuela's double earthquakes clamored for help to recover their loved one's bodies Friday as uncertainty grew over the death toll from the tragedy. Authorities on Friday reported a total of 2,645 deaths and more than 12,000 wounded from the 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude earthquakes that struck the country last week, with most fatalities in the coastal town of La Guaira, where scores of residential complexes were flattened.
