Guyana Steps In as Venezuela Rebuilds
Description
Venezuela reels from twin 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude earthquakes—the strongest in over a century—killing dozens, collapsing buildings, and leaving hundreds injured. Guyana, a close neighbor, swiftly offers solidarity and aid, with President Irfaan Ali pledging full support. The Essequibo Islands-West Demerara Chamber of Commerce (R3CCI) is spearheading a grassroots humanitarian response, mobilizing food, medicine, and hygiene kits for affected Venezuelans—many of whom live and work in Guyana. Chamber President Bhabita Albert insists aid targets civilians, not politics, and urges businesses to help their Venezuelan employees reconnect with families. Rescue crews battle through rubble while Guyana itself faces secondary damage from storms that destroyed over 100 homes and injured a teacher. Power restoration and emergency relief are underway as Guyana and global partners rally to support Venezuela’s recovery.
