More than 1,700 people have been confirmed killed in the twin earthquakes that struck Venezuela last week.
Delcy Rodriguez, the country’s interim president, has described it as the most brutal natural catastrophe in her country’s history.
Tens of thousands of people are estimated to be missing and anger against the government is growing. Residents say rescue operations were slow to start and were sorely inadequate.
The BBC’s International Correspondent Yogita Limaye reports from La Guaira, the coastal town hardest hit by the earthquakes.

Back-to-back earthquakes have killed at least 32 people in Venezuela, with at least 700 injured, acting President Delcy Rodríguez says.
The quakes, which had magnitudes of 7.2 and 7.5, hit an area west of the capital Caracas, and could be felt as far away as Bogota, Colombia.
Venezuela was celebrating a national holiday, and many people were at home when the quakes struck at 18:04 local time (23:04 BST).
Buildings are without power and the metro system is completely closed as rescuers search through the rubble for survivors.

Emergency workers managed to free Hernán Gil more than 100 hours after they had first located him under 140 tonnes of rubble.
Venezuela’s Acting President Delcy Rodríguez visited Gil in hospital on Thursday, calling him a “living miracle” in a video shared on social media.
As of Thursday evening, 2,595 people are confirmed to have died in the quakes which hit Venezuela on 24 June, and tens of thousands are still missing.
