1. Venezuelan authorities arrested a U.S.citizen yesterday for allegedly taking photos of military stations and other state entities.
The suspect, who has not been identified, is one of four U.S. citizens arrested in Venezuela this month amid a crackdown on dissent.
Roughly 2,000 Venezuelans have been arrested in the last month as Maduro's regime seeks to repress protests against his claims that he won a third term in the July 28 elections.
Edmundo González, who is recognized by the U.S. and other nations as the winner, said yesterday that he was made to sign under duress a letter in which he "admitted" Maduro was the winner. González is in Spain as a political refugee.
2. The Bolivian government is accusing former President Evo Morales of attempting to overthrow President Luis Arce.
The accusations came as a protest that Morales called for stretched into its third day outside of the capital, La Paz. Morales said during the protests that Arce should step down.
Morales and Arce, formerly MAS party allies, have been in a political dispute since last year, when Arce announced he'd run for re-election in 2025.
