Venezuelans newly deported from US missing after hotel collapse

A group of more than 100 Venezuelans, recently deported from the US, remains missing after the hotel they were staying in collapsed during earthquakes. The incident occurred hours after their arrival in Venezuela, raising urgent concerns about their safety and the government’s handling of deportations amid natural disasters.
