More than 60,000 to 80,000 people are reported missing or unaccounted for following the devastating twin earthquakes that struck Venezuela on Wednesday, June 24, 2026. Official and media tracking reports indicate that anywhere from 50,000 to over 100,000 people remain missing, while an online portal managed by the country’s political opposition has listed more than 62,000 individuals as unaccounted for. The massive numbers are a result of widespread building collapses, particularly in Caracas and the worst-affected coastal state of La Guaira. Acting President Delcy Rodríguez has confirmed that at least 164 people are dead and nearly 1,000 are injured, but emergency workers fear these numbers will soar as search and rescue teams scramble through the immense fields of rubble.
