A MAN scavenges through the debris after an explosion at Venezuela's biggest oil refinery.
A blast tore through Amuay refinery in Punto Fijo in the Peninsula of Paraguana on Saturday, killing at least 26 people, wounding more than 50 and halting the facility's operations in the nation's worst industrial accident in recent memory. The refinery's state-owned operator has recently been plagued by problems such as power faults and accidents. Picture: Gil Montano/Reuters
