Thousands take to the streets in Venezuela's capital in opposition to Guaido's coup attempt

VENEZUELANS poured onto the streets of Caracas today in support of President Nicolas Maduro amid accusations that US and other military forces were supporting an attempt to launch an armed uprising.

Thousands gathered at Miraflores Palace after the unelected President of the National Assembly Juan Guaido issued a call for Venezuelans to take to the streets in support of his latest coup attempt.
