Two months after a devastating double earthquake struck Venezuela, ongoing recovery and rescue efforts continue in the affected disaster zones. Volunteer rescuer Domingo Pacheco, who arrived on the scene immediately following the catastrophe, remains actively engaged in relief work as operations persist far beyond the initial aftermath.

The disaster began on June 24, when two major earthquakes measuring magnitudes 7.2 and 7.5 hit the region in rapid succession, with just 39 seconds separating the seismic events. The dual tremors caused widespread destruction, requiring sustained humanitarian and rescue interventions that continue sixty days later.
