Acting President Delcy Rodríguez declared a state of emergency, urging calm, cancelling school classes for several days, and asking healthcare professionals to report to hospitals. The tremors were felt across several Venezuelan states and as far as Brazil's Amazon, with reports of 32 hospitalisations and 15 people trapped in Falcon state. Numerous countries, including the United States, El Salvador, Ecuador, and Bolivia, offered international assistance and humanitarian aid to Venezuela following the disaster.
