Venezuela crisis: Defiant Maduro claims victory over Guaidó 'coup'
Tuesday marked the most violent episode of the Venezuelan political crisis this year. Venezuelan heath officials said 69 people were injured in the clashes, including two with bullet wounds.
The US Federal Aviation Administration issued an emergency prohibition against all US carriers flying below 26,000ft in Venezuelan airspace. Mr Guaidó's video on Tuesday night, calling for people to come out onto the streets again, was a motivational pep talk that felt hollow. He claims Mr Maduro has neither the support nor the respect of the armed forces, yet clearly the generals at the top - whose support Mr Guaidó needs - are not on the opposition's side either.
