U.S. search and rescue teams working alongside local firefighters pulled a baby and his mother from the rubble following devastating earthquakes in Venezuela.

The videos, released on Saturday (June 27), showed the 9-month-old baby being rescued alongside his mother, according to the Urban Search and Rescue Team from Fairfax County, Virginia. Both were found alive with only minor injuries and were brought to safety.

The rescue comes as the death toll from Venezuela’s twin earthquakes rose above 1,400 on Saturday. Foreign rescue teams have been arriving in the country as authorities continue searching for survivors in the hardest-hit coastal areas.

Rescuers have been deployed across La Guaira and parts of Caracas, where families and volunteers have spent days pulling survivors and bodies from the debris, often citing a lack of heavy equipment and limited official presence.

Officials said more than 1,600 foreign rescuers had arrived, with additional teams expected, as part of a growing international response to the twin quakes that struck on Wednesday and triggered hundreds of aftershocks.
