Death toll rises to four as fiery skirmishes erupt in Venezuela border crisisAt least two people have been killed - including a 14-year-old - after President Nicolas Maduro's security forces fired on demonstrators and aid trucks were set ablaze in Venezuela Anyone following events in Venezuela knows that it was on the Colombian side where the trucks were set on fire & not by Maduro's security forces! What are you doing ,? I'd expect so much more from the multicultural station than to post the Trump regime's propaganda! Let Venezuela sort its own problems out. The West often gets involved into a mess like this out of best intentions but the outcomes es are never worth it. All we get is an endless stream of refugees to deal with! 😠 Where were the independent reporters?
