Venezuela Earthquakes: Expert Compares Energy Release to 180 Hiroshima Bombs

Two major earthquakes, measuring 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude, have struck Venezuela, killing at least 164 people and injuring hundreds. Professor Efthymios Lekkas, president of Greece's Earthquake Planning and Protection Organization, explained that the energy released by the two earthquakes was equivalent to 180 Hiroshima atomic bombs. Rescue workers and volunteers are searching for survivors, often using bare hands due to a lack of machinery.
