Drone footage from Friday (July 3) people combing through the rubble of flatted flattened buildings in La Guaira, as rescue efforts entered its second week following a deadly twin earthquake which killed more than 2,000 people.

Civilians of all stripes - including survivors, family members, volunteer paramedics and foreign rescue teams - have descended on disaster areas, especially the hardest-hit northern state of La Guaira, since the 7.2- and 7.5-magnitude quakes struck on June 24.

Many of those digging through the rubble, along with international aid organizations, say the government's response was slow and ineffectual, with aid like food and medical supplies delayed and an ongoing lack of heavy machinery to move debris amid ongoing search operations.
