Venezuela's search for survivors, Europe's heatwave moves east, Central Alberta rain storms, and more.
About this episode
A crucial window has now closed in Venezuela. Aid groups say the first 72 hours are the most critical for finding survivors after a major earthquake. It's now believed Wednesday's twin quakes have killed more than 14-hundred people. Tens of thousands of people are still missing, and search and rescue workers are scrambling to save as many survivors as possible.
Also: Temperatures continue to soar dangerously high across Europe. Cities and towns in France, The U.K., Belgium, Germany, and others all saw the mercury hit record highs for this time of the year. And the stifling heatwave that's blanketed Western Europe is now moving eastward.
And: For the second weekend in a row, Central Alberta is being drenched with rain. A week ago, record amounts of rainfall, led to some towns and cities declaring states of emergency as waste-water systems became overwhelmed. Now, the rain is back, and the region is on its way to having the wettest June on record.
Plus: U.S. - Iran tensions, Xenophobia in South Africa, Debating theatre etiquette, and more.
