On the fourth working day (July 2 - local time) of the Vietnamese rescue and relief team in Guaira state, Venezuela, soldiers in 5 search teams combined with search teams using excavators and support tools.

The teams dug up and brought out 7 more bodies, raising the total number of bodies that the delegation brought out in 3 days in the field to 30 bodies. After that, the delegation handed over safely to local functional forces to carry out burial procedures.

Tomorrow, the delegation will continue to transport trapped victims who have not been able to do so today due to time conditions. In addition, the search area will be expanded, and more locations of trapped victims will be identified.

The medical team conducted disinfection of the cleaned areas, supported other teams to disinfect, and ensured the health of officers and soldiers of the forces.

The scale of devastation caused by the earthquake in Venezuela is determined to be far beyond official statistics, and the number of deaths here is also increasing sharply every day.

The Vietnamese rescue and relief team is determined to quickly clean up the assigned search and rescue area to continue carrying out support missions in other areas; trying every day, every hour to find as many victims as possible, contributing to helping Venezuela soon enter the national reconstruction process.
