Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez met with Israeli search-and-rescue officials, Channel 12 reported Wednesday. The meeting comes as the Israeli rescue mission — a joint Home Front Command and Foreign Ministry effort — continues its work in earthquake-affected areas of Venezuela. As The Zioneer reported earlier Wednesday, the delegation's stay was extended by two weeks following a request from the Venezuelan president. The absence of formal diplomatic relations between Israel and Venezuela since 2009 has not prevented the humanitarian cooperation. The exact location and content of the meeting were not disclosed.
