financial backers in florida while for its part colombia is denying any involvement we have this look at how the alleged attack unfolded and the threat by my guru in full flow suddenly cut short this footage broadcast live on state television shows the moment when an apparent explosion rocked a military parade sending hundreds fleeing on foot. the government declared it in assassination attempt. on a mountain state which i don't want to see on the explosions were heard which we have established as coming from multiple drone idea. of the fact the one of the order that people took that i do not think it was an attempt on the life of the president of venezuela nicolas maduro would be fairly new idea but to put everyone at ease the attack has failed to get it or that it or others without

a complete i mean the initial. just hours later mudra gave a defiant speech speculating that the incident was a right wing conspiracy with ties abroad sheehan and infant thoughts i see not a movie there has been an attempt to assassinate me and. i have no doubt that this all points to the extreme right in venezuela and in alliance with the right in colombia and that colombia's president one man was sent to those is behind this attempt i have no doubt. the socialist president has often accused the right wing opposition of plotting a coup but as the economy continues to weaken widespread protests have become one of the biggest threats to my duros administration we're joined now by correspondent oscar schleicher who is in the event of cap venezuelan capital caracas so i ask you in hearing from venezuela's information minister he says explosive laden drones

were used and want to he's calling an attack on president maduro as life what evidence does the government have that drones were used well the evidence that we haven't seen as of yet is the video that you all saw and the government's or the information minister said some grown parts an explosive residue in a neighborhood near my apartment but we have had no we haven't had any visuals to back those bands as of now there are witnesses that reported seeing one object explode near the stage were present. and we've seen pictures of some of the injured there are seven injured military officers from this explosion and we've seen pictures of those injured officers so that's the only evidence that we. welcome a duro himself has put the blame on columbia along with backers in florida why would these parties want him dead. well one of the things he mentioned

is that they wanted to plot against him because of the new economic measures that have been going on here and by this way that we have in the few days we're changing our own currency and there are new. measures to regulate gasoline. prices as well so he's blaming some of that. it is this assassination plot against him all right well what my dura has also said is that a number of those as legibly and involved have now been arrested is there any information on who these individuals are or not yet my role mention this briefly during his speech he said he didn't want to give any details until we finished the investigation for some of the opposition this could turn into

a witch hunt but besides that reaction we've heard little from the opposition specially the opposition leaders about this attack. all right so maduro saying this wasn't an attempted assassination but we have been hearing some other very different explanations of what happened we have some news agencies saying a firefighter is saying it was a gas tank explosion what have you been hearing. well there are reports and visual evidence of an apartment in flames near the radio where my daughter was and some agencies are reporting that that was the only explosion on site. this is the twenty year time of who has at least twenty times more who has said there has been plots against his life when it was how this was president there were over fifty of these accusations of. terror plots against their lives this is the first time ever

you seeing such such an attack. fold out in front of our eyes and this television. address it was made so it is it would be quite elaborate. plan to take on if it wasn't true and there's a lot of people that are in disbelief of this being sure however in social media and some journalists are. have said that this comes from group of military officers and they are calling me an operation. and that was journalist oscar schleicher speaking to us earlier from caracas well turning now to israel where tens of thousands of people have been protesting and tell of evil against a controversial new law the demonstration was organized by the country's druze minority they say the law marginalizes non jewish people in the country many
