00:00.
00:44And my children told me to take away from here, we don't want to die.
00:50Well, they saw that the whole world disappeared from there.
00:54I didn't want to leave my house alone,
00:56and I was waiting for them to leave the house,
00:59and I was waiting for them to leave the house alone.
01:05So my partner, as a funcionario, told me to come here
01:09to camp with my daughter,
01:12that I was more safe than with my daughter,
01:14so that I didn't leave my house alone.
01:17We are being attended very well,
01:19we thank those countries that have been added,
01:23to Zulia, to Colombia,
01:28all those countries, we are very grateful.
01:30Here, really, we don't need food.
01:34We have had cold, because it's normal,
01:37it's not easy, it's not easy what we are living.
01:42We are being taken away from a city of Guaira,
01:43because it's a city of Guaira,
01:45we really need support,
01:46we need to be able to take away from those homes.
01:49There is still people living on those homes.
01:52And here we are, we can not be afraid.
01:53We have received a lot of clothes, clothes, shoes, we have a lot to do with them,
02:00but we are asking them to help the Venezuelan people to help us with insumos like
02:05toadshows, we need pañales for adults, for children, colchonetas, we need sábanas,
02:11because we have to cover them from the night, from the cold, from the lluvia,
02:14they are going to be long days, this is just the beginning, señores.
02:17I have seen on social media that we have already been made of food,
02:20this is not only for today, this is for several days.
02:23So, we are going to keep the calm, we need first needs and clean articles.
02:33What you have seen already in images is very significant infrastructure damage,
02:38multi-story buildings collapsed across very large geographic parts of the country,
02:44but what we are paying attention to beyond that is really how do we shore up the public services,
02:51in particular the health services in the impacted areas, and how do we deliver essential relief
02:58items to the populations that have been impacted in the days ahead, but start thinking about the,
03:05even the longer term, this is going to be a months long, not weeks long response to the earthquakes.
03:11The airport is damaged, that is presenting a real obstacle right now to getting in supplies at scale.
03:18We have pre-positioned stock in country that we are able to use and stock in the neighbouring country,
03:23Colombia, to meet the needs we are going to need airport access, there are telecommunications issues,
03:29internet connectivity is very patchy.
03:31This is common in an earthquake aftermath, as you have the damage to the infrastructure,
03:36also makes it hard to reach the people who have been impacted by that.
03:43This is the last weekend.
