US Navy Warships Arrive In Venezuela To Support Relief Operations After Deadly Earthquakes Kill Thousands
The Port of La Guaira, one of Venezuela's two main ports, was temporarily closed following devastating magnitude 7.2 and 7.5 earthquakes on June 24, 2026, and has since reopened for humanitarian relief operations with U.S. military assistance. However, the port's resumption of commercial shipping remains uncertain, as officials have not announced a timeline for its return to normal commercial operations.
