Fresh protests have broken out in the Venezuelan capital Caracas after the results of the country’s presidential election were announced, the BBC writes.
Thousands gathered in the city center to show their opposition to President Nicolas Maduro’s claim of victory.
Many said they would not stop until there was a new government, and some said this would only be achieved if the security forces joined opposition protesters.
However the military and police have so far remained loyal to Maduro and have fired tear gas and rubber bullets at some protesters.
Local officials say around 750 people have been arrested. On Tuesday Venezuela’s defense minister described the protests as a coup attempt.
