Venezuela Earthquakes: Death Toll Rises to 235

The death toll from two big earthquakes in Venezuela has gone up to at least 235.

A major rescue operation is still going on.

Venezuela's northern coast is on the edge of two big tectonic plates.

There was a big earthquake in 1997 that killed 73 people.

Another earthquake in 1967 killed 236 people.

The recent earthquake was the strongest since 1900.

It was felt in neighboring Colombia, where people left buildings as a precaution.

Tremors were also felt in some cities in northern Brazil.

A woman from Caracas said this earthquake was worse than the one in 1967.

She said she was in her van when the earthquake hit and it was very scary.

The death toll is expected to go up as many people are still missing.
