Rescue teams have located and identified some victims of the twin earthquakes but remain unable to recover the bodies because they are trapped beneath reinforced concrete. Crews continue working without heavy machinery and with limited lighting after dark. Buildings that are still shifting add further risk to operations.
A Venezuelan firefighter on site stated that the conditions prevent crews from reaching many victims.
