Maracaibo is a city defeated by Venezuela's ongoing crisis

CABIMAS VENEZUELA - MAY 9 A fisherman passes some of the dilapidated infrastructure of the Venezuelan state run oil company on Lake Maracaibo in Cabimas, Venezuela on May 9, 2019. Despite the intense contamination of the water fishermen still catch, sell and eat the fish and shrimp they catch from Lake Maracaibo, one of the planet's oldest lakes. Cabimas is one of Venezuela's oil centers and is suffering from a near total collapse of its infrastructure. Dozens of ruptured pipes are releasing oil and gas into Lake Maracaibo unabated, oil leaks on land are common and fish stocks are contaminated.
