7/24/2026
One month after the earthquake, the Order of Malta’s response, under the central coordination of the Grand Magistry, has reached a total of over 28,000 people through healthcare services, distribution of essential goods, food assistance and family reunification services.
Two weeks after the earthquakes that devastated Venezuela, particularly hitting the coastal area of La Guaira north of Caracas, the Venezuelan Association of the Order of Malta (AVOM) has taken over the management of the medical post set up in Caraballeda.
The Order of Malta has an enduring commitment to assisting migrants in the central Mediterranean, dating back to 2008. The Order’s Italian Relief Corps (CISOM) provides medical assistance during search and rescue operations for migrants.
