The focus in Venezuela is shifting from search and rescue to providing medical assistance as a major health crisis is looming, João Almeida da Silva, one of 11 experts deployed to the disaster-struck country by the EU Emergency Response Coordination Centre (ERCC), told Euronews.
"What we see is that there's going to be a huge need to support Venezuela," da Silva said on Euronews' flagship morning programme Europe Today. He was speaking from an operations base in La Guaira Stadium, one of the country's hardest-hit areas.
