  A  newborn baby has been rescued from a fallen building 32 hours after the twin earthquakes that devastated a Venezuelan coastal city. Video shared on social media Friday shows rescuers working under a floodlight atop collapsed masonry and bringing the infant out to applause late Friday in the hardest-hit city of La Guaira, north of the capital Caracas. They carefully pass the baby, wrapped in a quilt, from person to person before cleaning the child gently with tissues, the video shows. According to the user, Andreina Quintero, who published the video on social media, the baby was just 18 days old and was uninjured after being trapped for 32 hours.

The UN humanitarian agency OCHA said search-and-rescue teams from at least 17 countries were being mobilized to help find survivors. But the search for survivors saw desperate attempts by local residents to claw away rubble from apartment buildings that collapsed in Wednesday’s double-quakes. Experts say the first 72 hours after natural disasters are the key, narrow window for finding the living. There was joy in the hardest-hit coastal area of La Guai...
