Italy provides three seismological stations to Venezuela
Italy's National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV) has temporarily provided three seismological stations to Venezuela to improve the country's ability to analyze seismic activity and respond to earthquakes.
The equipment was requested by the Venezuelan embassy in Rome with support from the Italo-Latin American International Organization (IILA). Following their delivery to the diplomatic mission on August 4, the stations were transferred to the Venezuelan Foundation for Seismological Research (Funvisis), which will manage their operation and maintenance during the period of bilateral cooperation.
The initiative follows two major earthquakes on June 24, with magnitudes of 7.2 and 7.5, which primarily affected the northern region and the state of La Guaira. Those seismic events resulted in damage to nearly 60,000 homes and the recovery of 6,438 bodies.
