June 28 (UPI) — Rescue workers pulled two 11-year-old boys out of the rubble of collapsed buildings Sunday, days after two strong earthquakes hit Venezuela, killing hundreds, authorities announced.

The two boys were found in the wreckage of separate buildings.

One of the boys, identified simply as Moises, was found under about 10 feet of rubble in La Guaira state. Rescue workers shared video clips of them pulling the boy out from the building with a bandage covering his eyes from the glare of the sun after spending more than 80 hours in the dark under the wreckage.

“The way the structure collapsed created a pocket of space that sheltered him, and he sustained no injuries,” firefighter Nelson Quintin told The New York Times.

Hours after Moises’ rescue was announced, interim President Delcy Rodríguez shared on X that another boy, Belkys Barreto, had been found alive and was brought out from the rubble on a stretcher.

The twin rescues were a rare bright spot as desperate families seek to find loved ones missing or killed by the earthquakes — 7.2- and 7.5-magnitude — that struck the country Wednesday. Rescue workers said they’re not giving up hope of finding people alive despite having no access to food or water for more than 85 hours.

Officials announced Sunday that the death toll from the disaster has risen to 1,450, the BBC reported. In a televised address Sunday, National Assembly President Jorge Rodríguez said about 3,150 were injured and more than 12,000 displaced.

“We are in critical hours, in crucial hours, to continue to save lives,” he said, as reported by CNN.

The La Guaria Maritime Sports Club announced Sunday that Argentine soccer player, Lucas Trejo, lost his wife Yanina, and children Aaron and Ainoha in the earthquakes, which destroyed his home. Trejo plays for a Venezuelan team.
