Office buildings and homes have been flattened in the capital and across several states.

A rescue and recovery operation is underway across northern Venezuela after two back to back earthquakes struck overnight. We hear from eyewitnesses and speak to our reporters. We also hear a conversation with Venezuelans abroad.

Much of Europe is experiencing another day of soaring temperatures. We speak to climate experts from across the continent.
