Three days after the devastating earthquakes in Venezuela, the death toll has climbed to at least 920, with more than 3,300 injured and tens of thousands still missing.
Rescue operations have continued since the 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude earthquakes struck the northern shore of the country on Wednesday, and authorities said 243 people have been saved so far.
American search and rescue teams from Virginia, California and Florida were dispatched to Venezuela on Friday, joining the effort to pull people out of collapsed buildings.
Anthony Marrone, the Los Angeles County fire chief, told Nicolás Maduro.
Rodriguez's leadership and the legitimacy of her government will be tested during this crisis given she was not elected to the presidency and has not given any timetable on when elections will be held.
