A 43-year-old man in Venezuela is rescued after being trapped for eight days under rubble from a collapsed shopping centre parking lot following earthquakes. Multiple outlets identify the survivor as Hernán Alberto Gil Flores. Reports say he was buried beneath wreckage at the Galerías Playa Grande shopping centre in La Guaira, after the structure collapsed during the quake. According to accounts from the rescue effort, specialised teams detect signs of life and establish contact with him, leading to his extraction. The rescue is described by outlets as exceptional given the length of time he remained trapped, but details of his condition immediately after the rescue are not consistently reported in the supplied summaries. Overall, the coverage agrees on the core timeline—eight days under the collapsed structure—and the location and circumstances of his entrapment, attributing the breakthrough to detection of life signals and subsequent rescue operations.
