Venezuela's northern coast has recently experienced two powerful earthquakes, collectively known as a 'doublet.' This seismic event has tragically resulted in the deaths of more than 180 individuals.
Doublet earthquakes occur when two quakes happen in close succession, often leading to increased destruction. The implications of such events can be severe, particularly in populated areas.
