For Venezuela ππ»πͺ
Yesterday evening, my home country, Venezuela, was hit by two earthquakes of 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude back-to-back, with over 150 aftershocks since then (several of which were of similar magnitude), as many of you may have heard. I cannot describe the devastation. They affected the north-central region, but the most damage is in the capital, Caracas, and La Guaira. So far (06/25/26 ~4:10pm local time), the count goes almost 200 people dead, over a thousand injured, and ten of thousands missing⦠and counting. I don't know how many buildings collapsed completely, with a lot more with substantial damage. There are areas with no power, so many people lost their homes, all they had.
I'm writing this to ask a favor of you.
First, keep all Venezuelan people in your prayers. Keep in your prayers the victims, those trapped, their families, and the rescuers and volunteers doing their best to help.
If you know someone from Venezuela, give them your support. It means the world to us.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
