00:09Venezuela responded promptly to the flooding in the capital city and other
00:13states. Our correspondent Madeleine Garcia has more details.
00:20Hello, fortunately everything is back to normal in the Venezuelan capital. We have traveled
00:26through the areas where we saw those images that were flooded with four crashes, affecting
00:31the cars that, for example, were passing through one of the main highways of the capital.
00:36And today, the path has been restored. Since last night, the authorities acted quickly.
00:42The machines cleared the road. Also, 700 officials were deployed by order of the acting president
00:48Delci Rodriguez, who said that Venezuela was on alert because the tropical wave number
00:5340 continues to pass and it wreaked havoc yesterday.
01:04But immediately, when the authorities acted, they solved the situation.
01:08We have also gone to other affected areas, and we saw cleaning blocks clearing the roads,
01:14the mud that was left as a result of the rain. We are now in another area of the capital.
01:19This is in the west, in one of the main avenues of the paradise. Vega is very close. Here,
01:26too, there were some affections. Well, because when it rains, the cracks overflow. But today
01:32we were seeing even people are doing their little markets on Sundays. The public transport has
01:36no problem in the areas where we have passed. Also, the subway is working without any kind
01:41of problem. So, fortunately, this is what is happening at this time in Venezuela. However, the authorities
01:49remain on alert for the passage of this tropical wave number 40 and the Venezuelan risk system
01:55of civil protection, firefighters, security agencies, they remain on alert in any situation
02:01in case the rain reappears and causes any damage throughout the national territory. That's the situation here
02:08in the capital.
