Venezuela Quake Toll Hits 2,645 as Israeli Aid Continues

The Venezuelan National Assembly posted July 3 that the official toll from the June 24 twin earthquakes rose to 2,645 dead, 12,666 injured, 6,462 rescued alive and 15,050 displaced. Wire reports carried the same 2,645 death toll and 12,600-plus injuries, with 32 Spanish citizens also among the dead. The update comes as Israel's relief mission remains part of the response: Yoed Magen's team opened a rare diplomatic channel with Caracas, and Israeli-founded drone technology is helping rescuers search rubble. Jewish responsibility should keep saving lives even where hostile diplomacy once kept doors closed.
