She said the death toll had increased by around 300 compared with the previous day, but authorities have yet to release an estimate of the number of missing people or a final casualty count, CNN reported. Doubts over the official figures have intensified after a forensic pathologist from La Guaira state, one of the hardest-hit areas, told CNN that the government&#39;s reported death toll &ldquo;does not represent even one-third of the actual number of fatalities.&rdquo;💔 Una imagen que resume el amor m&aacute;s grande y el dolor m&aacute;s profundo. 😭 Entre las historias que han marcado el terremoto en Venezuela, pocas han conmovido tanto como la de esta familia.De acuerdo con la informaci&oacute;n difundida sobre el rescate, los equipos encontraron a los&hellip; pic.twitter.com/cepFj1EsTY&mdash; Glenda Ranca&ntilde;o (@rancanoglenda7) July 3, 2026According to the pathologist, the makeshift morgue where he works is processing around 400 bodies a day, while its refrigerated storage facilities have reached full capacity.Due to the lack of space, body bags are being temporarily left outdoors, where high temperatures are accelerating the decomposition of the remains.En medio de las labores de rescate y recuperaci&oacute;n en La Guaira, Venezuela el estado m&aacute;s afectado por el doble terremoto,los ciudadanos no cesan de mostrar empat&iacute;a y solidaridad hacia las personas que se encuentran en los sectores fuertemente impactados como Los Cocos. @teleSURtv pic.twitter.com/dBUxKGQKNm&mdash; Hern&aacute;n Tobar (@TobarteleSUR) July 3, 2026 &ldquo;La Guaira is beyond description. There are so many victims, so many families. Low-income families have been hit the hardest,&rdquo; the pathologist said.She added that many families are recovering the bodies of their loved ones from the rubble themselves and bringing them to morgues because rescue services are unable to cope with the scale of the disaster.Rodr&iacute;guez said that &ldquo;almost all officials&rdquo; in La Guaira state were killed in the twin earthquakes. She added that 189 buildings had collapsed across Venezuela, while around 800 others were completely destroyed.Preliminary estimates by the U.S. Geological Survey indicate a high probability that the twin earthquakes, measuring magnitudes 7.2 and 7.5, claimed the lives of tens of thousands of people.A push to identify bodies as deaths multiply in Venezuela after twin earthquakes https://t.co/oRon9lmyRv #News&mdash; The Right News, Right Now.

Opposition leader Mar&iacute;a Corina Machado accused the authorities of concealing the scale of the disaster and restricting access to information, while the human rights organization PROVEA said that the official data raise &ldquo;more questions than answers.&rdquo;HUNDREDS OF COFFINS LINE THE STREETS AS DEATH TOLL MOUNTS IN VENEZUELA@OscarRamirezTJ reports from La Guaira, Venezuela, warning of possible infection risk: &quot;The whole city smells like decomposed bodies... we gotta wear a mask.&quot; pic.twitter.com/qmBVkVO6MA&mdash; Real America&#39;s Voice (RAV) (@RealAmVoice) July 2, 2026Due to the lack of official information, citizens are increasingly relying on unofficial databases to report missing persons, CNN reported.The platform &ldquo;Venezuela Reporta,&rdquo; which collects data through citizen submissions, estimates that tens of thousands of people are still missing, although these figures have not been independently verified.National Assembly President Jorge Rodr&iacute;guez said that around 30,000 people were in the hardest-hit areas of La Guaira at the time of the earthquake, of whom approximately 20,000 were evacuated or rescued.In addition to the rising death toll, identifying bodies has become a major challenge.According to forensic experts, many bodies are in an advanced state of decomposition, making identification possible mainly through tattoos, dental work, or clothing, while DNA analysis is largely unavailable due to high costs.🚨 Vietnam Rescuers Recover First Bodies After Venezuela Earthquake pic.twitter.com/XHyeqCfeSk&mdash; NGO-SUGAR (@ngosugartp) July 2, 2026&ldquo;There are many children arriving whose bodies can no longer be recognized even by family members,&rdquo; the pathologist said, adding that forensic services are overwhelmed and staff are working under extreme psychological pressure. Rodr&iacute;guez emphasized that authorities are following strict procedures for the identification and handling of victims, and that no bodies will be buried in mass graves, according to the VTV portal.Presenting a report on the consequences of the twin earthquakes, she said that a special morgue has been opened in La Guaira, where national regulations and international protocols for handling remains in natural disaster emergencies are being applied.According to her, the identification and processing of bodies involves the National Service of Medicine and Forensic Sciences (Senamecf), the Attorney General&rsquo;s Office, and Venezuela&rsquo;s Civil Registry, in order to ensure &ldquo;lawful and dignified treatment of victims and their families.&rdquo;She explained that body identification involves multiple forensic methods.The process begins with fingerprinting and photographic documentation, while in cases where this is not possible, dental forensic analysis is used to determine identity.
