Venezuela has arrested six foreign nationals, among them three Americans, two Spaniards, and a Czech citizen, on accusations of plotting to assassinate President Nicolas Maduro.
Venezuelan Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello announced the arrests, claiming the group was involved in plans to 'destabilize' the country through 'violent actions.' The government also seized 400 US rifles, alleging these were to be used in the plot. The United States has denied any involvement in the alleged scheme.
