委内瑞拉少年Winder和Deivi在6月24日的连续地震中失去了母亲Yusmani、祖母Carmen和弟弟Moissés[1]。那场灾难中,两次分别为7.2级和7.5级的地震仅间隔39秒发生,造成超过6300人死亡[1]。
在父亲的安排下,兄弟二人于6月28日迁往哥伦比亚卡利市[1]。仅三天后的周一,一场7.4级地震——该国本世纪最强地震——再次袭击了这个地区[1]。面对这场新的灾难,两兄弟对父亲说道:"爸爸,保持冷静。我们之前经历过这个。"[1]
Brothers Winder and Deivi Delfín lost their mother Yusmani, grandmother Carmen, and younger brother Moissés when two devastating earthquakes struck Venezuela on June 24 [1]. The twin tremors, measuring 7.2 and 7.5 in magnitude and striking just 39 seconds apart, killed more than 6,300 people [1]. In hopes of finding safety, their father arranged for the two teenagers to relocate to Cali, Colombia on June 28 [1]. Three days after their arrival, they were struck by a 7.4-magnitude earthquake—the strongest to hit Colombia this century [1].
When the Colombian earthquake hit, the brothers told their father: "Dad, stay calm. We've been through this before" [1]. Having survived the loss of family members in Venezuela, Winder and Deivi supported each other and comforted their family through the seismic crisis [1].
