12 people have died from asphyxiation in a shuttered gold mine in southeastern Venezuela, a local official told AFP on Saturday.

"They entered a mine that had been closed for a long time," the secretary of security in El Callao, General Edgar Colina Reyes, said in a telephone interview. The deaths occurred on Wednesday when "the mine was flooded from rains," cutting off the illegal miners' oxygen supply, Colina said.
