Venezuela earthquake survivors are struggling to find aid, with at least 235 confirmed dead and thousands injured, as rescue efforts continue. The US Supreme Court has ruled that the government can prevent asylum seekers from physically entering the country, potentially blocking them from applying for asylum. Humanitarian groups warn that supporting affected individuals will be a lengthy process due to the country's limited experience with major earthquakes. The court's decision has broader implications, including potentially revoking temporary legal status for hundreds of thousands of immigrants.
