EXCLUSIVE: Franklin Graham visits emergency hospital treating Venezuela earthquake victims
Reverend Franklin Graham, head of the Christian relief organisation Samaritan's Purse, visited an emergency field hospital in La Guaira, Venezuela, set up to treat victims of recent deadly earthquakes. The visit, reported exclusively by Fox News, highlighted the humanitarian response to the disaster and Graham's call for prayer on behalf of those affected.
During the visit, Graham urged people to pray for the people of Venezuela, including victims and survivors receiving treatment at the Samaritan's Purse facility. The organisation, which Graham leads, regularly deploys emergency medical teams and field hospitals to disaster zones around the world, and this deployment follows a series of earthquakes that struck Venezuela.

Explained simply
La Guaira is a coastal area of Venezuela, a country in northern South America. Earthquakes can damage buildings and roads, leaving people injured and making it harder for emergency services to reach them.
Samaritan’s Purse is a Christian relief organisation led by the Reverend Franklin Graham. It sends medical teams and temporary hospitals to places affected by disasters, where local hospitals may need extra support. The response matters because injured people need timely care while communities deal with damage and disruption.
