 "14 Journalists detained in Venezuela during coverage of US intervention: National Press Association")
More than a dozen journalists were detained in Venezuela during the coverage of the US intervention in Caracas on Monday, including a march in support of ousted President Nicolas Maduro and the swearing-in of the country’s new legislature, the South American nation’s press association said.
All 14 of those detained were released later, according to the X post of the press association (SNTP), in which one was a foreign national who was deported.
SNTP said that those detained included 11 people working with international media outlets and one with a national outlet.
When news agency Reuters asked for a comment on the detention of journalists, Venezuela’s information ministry, which handles all contact with the government, did not immediately respond. Venezuela’s Ministry of Communications also did not respond to requests for comment.
The press detentions come following the US intervention of Venezuela and capturing Maduro in an overnight operation this weekend. On Monday the deposed leader pleaded not guilty to narcoterrorism charges in a New York court.
Currently, the Vice President Delcy Rodriguez, has taken the charge as the interim leader of the state.
