Anger directed at Venezuela's official response to earthquake recovery

Venezuelans in quake-affected areas have expressed anger over the state's response to the natural disaster. Volunteers are racing to locate survivors who may still be trapped under rubble of fallen buildings. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing BBC News.

The BBC's Orla Guerin reports from the scenes of rubble in Catia la Mar, a coastal city in northern Venezuela, where locals feel the state has let them down. Rescue efforts are hampered by slow official response, and residents are digging through debris with their bare hands. The earthquake has added to the country's ongoing crisis.
