Reportedly, a 2026 earthquake could strike the Venusian surface

  • Official figures for Venusian earthquakes stand at 2,295 deaths, but the estimate remains higher than the number of fatalities.
  • In La Guaira, the death toll from the earthquakes is still being assessed, and the exact number of deaths is not yet known.
  • In the earthquake zone, the death toll is expected to rise further, as official figures remain unclear.

Venusian earthquakes have struck the surface of the planet with a magnitude of 7.2 to 7.5, which was recorded in red on 2026. According to official data, 2,295 people have died, with more than 300 injured. The earthquake occurred at a depth of 400 kilometers, and the real number of victims could be much higher.

One of the reasons for the earthquakes, which is associated with the material composition, is the movement of tectonic plates. After the earthquake, La Guaira was hit by a strong aftershock, which, according to experts, could be felt hundreds of kilometers away. In the meantime, the number of victims is expected to increase.

The material composition also suggests that the DNC test has been conducted through the earthquake zone. Through strong shaking, the buildings were damaged and collapsed, and the situation may worsen. It is possible that the number of victims will continue to rise, as the full scale of the damage is still unknown.

Paralleling the earthquake, the death toll is increasing. The publication EL PAÍS reports that the earthquake was caused by a rupture of a major fault line, which, according to the report, could have led to the collapse of buildings. The report also notes that the earthquake was felt across a wide area, and that the number of injured may continue to grow.

In addition, the earthquake also affected the region, with official sources reporting that more than 11,267 people were injured. The materials indicate that the epicenter was near the border of the country, and that the number of deaths could exceed 10,000. Meanwhile, preliminary reports from the region indicate that the death toll may reach 40,668 people, with 855 buildings destroyed and 189 severely damaged.

According to preliminary information, the number of victims may continue to rise, as the rescue teams are still searching for survivors. Authorities warn that the final death toll could be higher, as many people may still be trapped under the rubble.
