Protests Erupt Across Venezuela as Election Dispute Continues

Venezuelan opposition supporters gathered in multiple cities, including Caracas, to protest Nicolas Maduro's disputed election victory. Maria Corina Machado, a key opposition leader, called for mass gatherings in over 300 cities in Venezuela and abroad, and thousands of demonstrators responded. The protests were peaceful, with Machado emphasizing that "peaceful protest is our right." Police and military forces were deployed to maintain order, but the opposition remained determined to continue their demonstrations, with Machado stating "we won't leave the streets." The opposition is united in their call to denounce Maduro's election victory, which they claim was disputed.
