Netherlands sending rescue team to quake-hit Venezuela

The Netherlands said Thursday it would be sending a team of rescue workers to help Venezuela, after the country was struck by its strongest earthquake in more than a century.

"The needs are immense," Foreign Trade Minister Sjoerd Sjoerdsma said in a statement, announcing a two-million-euro aid package to deploy a search and rescue team that includes rescue workers and dogs and equipment.
