Venezuelan actress and TV host Yorgelis Delgado is among those missing following the devastating earthquakes that struck La Guaira state, one of the regions hardest hit by the disaster. The situation has caused deep concern among both her family and the artistic community, as search and rescue efforts continue.
According to various national and international media reports, Delgado was reportedly inside the building where he lived at the time of the earthquakes. The structure collapsed almost entirely due to the intensity of the earthquake, leaving dozens of people trapped in the rubble.
Since then, no one has been able to contact the actress or her mother, who was reportedly also in the building when the tragedy occurred.
