Venezuela: Chavismo ambushed protesters at the border and several injured for repression

While thousands of people insist that humanitarian aid enters the country, the Bolivarian National Guard, under the command of Nicolás Maduro, is making further progress against the protesters.

Saturday, finally, it was not the "D-Day" as speculated millions of Venezuelans. Although thousands of people – along with Juan Guaidó at the head – went to the border to coordinate the entry of food and medicine, the military forces that responded to Nicolás Maduro were able to stop the attack. help for the moment in Venezuela.

After most incidents occurred on the Simón Bolívar international bridge, the conflicts were transferred Tuesday to Francisco de Paula Santander, about 15 km north, where control of the Bolivarian National Guard is less. With a team of special envoys, TN has recorded every moment from the border.

"We were desperate, one of our teammates fell into the void, many of us were shot and wounded, we are here to introduce humanitarian aid," said one of the Venezuelan wounded.

Thousands of people are seeking to reopen the border so that the help that many countries have once and foremost achieves once and for all, with the United States in the forefront. Maduro, for all this, remains in the same position that he had from the beginning: he thinks that food is a "rotten gift" that carries the "poison of humiliation".

Some 2,000 Venezuelans, who crossed the Colombian border to participate in the process of entering humanitarian aid, can not return to their country because of the blockade. Without a house and with very little money to buy food, they are in a sort of "limbo". Every hour that pbades, the situation of these people becomes more and more desperate: they have already called the media and plan to organize a demonstration to make visible the problem they have encountered.
