Search continues for Venezuela earthquake survivors

Newsday

Available for 29 days

Within the space of two minutes on Wednesday, Venezuela suffered a double earthquake of immense intensity. Thousands are still unaccounted for, as rescue services, neighbours and volunteers search the rubble of levelled buildings to search for survivors. We hear from one of the survivors. As Europe is sweltering in temperatures as high as 40 degrees Celsius, we look at why Europe is the fastest warming continent. And we look at the latest matches to have been played at the World Cup Football tournament. Presenters: James Copnall and Anne Soy.
