Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaidó has called for a general strike and more demonstrations to force President Nicolás Maduro from power.
In a series of tweets on Wednesday he appealed for a sustained protest as part of “Operation Liberty”, after thousands came onto the streets.
“This is a regime that has lost control. The more we are in the streets, the closer we are,” Guaidó said.
One opposition-controlled district of Caracas saw fresh clashes between demonstrators and security forces. Several dozen people were reportedly injured.
