a short time ago. there was no u.s. government involvement in this at all just within the past couple of hours i've spoken with our charge a in caracas the head diplomatic official down there he and his staff are up much of the night making sure that americans in venezuela are safe as of now now with respect to what happened last afternoon look could be a lot of things from a pretext set up by the majority in itself to something else that was the u.s. national security adviser that out let's take a look at how that alleged attack on folded his venezuelan president maduro respecting at a military parade in caracas by. in full flow suddenly cut short. this footage broadcast live on state television shows the moment when an apparent explosion rocked the military parade sending hundreds fleeing on foot.

the government declared it in assassination attempt. that i'm going to face 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 of what i want to people to find out that they will not think that it was an attempt on the life of the president of venezuela nicolas maduro but to put everyone on the attack has failed to. complete them in. just hours later mudra gave a defiant speech speculating that the incident was a right wing conspiracy with ties abroad done to the sheehan i mean ten thousand or so i see not a movie there has been an attempt to assassinate me. i have no doubt that this all points to the extreme right and then a swale a in alliance with the right in colombia and that colombia's president one man one sentence 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. oh we're joined now by correspondent also gushy lanka who's in the venezuelan capital caracas welcome all sky now venezuela's government says this alleged attack on my daughter involved drones to the explosives that fire fighters both have disputed that they say gas cylinder explode it what concrete facts all that about this. well the only times we've calcified witnesses that reported seeing a flying object explode near the stairs were resolutely. and also the remains of an explosive gas cylinders in a nearby apartment other than that there is a video that we're seeing where it's really not clear what's going on now the government has to reveal evidence that that's their land because there's

a lot of skepticism to their to their claim that it was how this was president he claimed to have had over fifty assassination plots against my who in his career has claimed over twenty assassination plots but this is the first time we see one actually play out if it is an elaborate lie that the evidence would be able to prove their credibility but for now we have not seen much also we understand there's been some claims of involvement and responsibility tell us about those. yes there's a group kong that she shouldn't soldiers that put out a memo on social media claiming responsibility on the attack and calling the operation phoenix they say they're backed by the constitution and that they are planning to change the government you're going to spoil it but there's really no way to verify that it is an actual claim some journalists have backed it up but it

is still unclear if this is an actual claim of responsibility for his actions so a claim from the so-called. soldier the daughter says that some of those allegedly involved have been arrested do we know who they are we don't know much of who they are we know that there's at least four people arrested after the attack some. leaders of the government have said that they were arrested trying to flee. after the bombs and slowed it but there's not much information other than that and what the president said in his speech last say accusations seconding at the moment is little evidence at this stage have we had from the accused well the opposition has been very quiet about. this is the situation but there is. one of the groups the opposition groups has said that they are very worried

that there's more accusations that investigations about this action and they are saying that there there are claims you change this document is constitutional and as should be made such not violence actions against the government also in the venezuelan capital caracas thank you for your reporting and analysis. let's get a check now on some of the other stories making news around the world police in switzerland have confirmed that twenty people were killed off a vintage airplane crashed in the swiss alps on saturday the world war two aircraft smashed into a mountainside else to go around two thousand five hundred meters off just taking off from the capital plane was carrying seventeen passengers and three crew. wildfires have kicked up in southern portugal over one of the hottest weekends on

. and a short while ago i spoke to journalist critic ovett ago in jakarta and asked her about the situation in long book. well as a student there have been three casualties register so far this comes after seventeen people mostly tourists were killed last week when another huge earthquake hit the same kaila and earthquake only passed about four hours ago so they were better prepared and there's no longer a tsunami warning but the disaster agency has warned everyone who is on long island to be kate to higher ground despite the tsunami warning being lifted and aftershocks of the quake of which there were over sixty were felt as far as bali which is a very popular tourist destination as well. across the kind of course certainly a week ago there was that six point four magnitude quake that you mentioned exactly in the same location that killed over a dozen people of course as early days but does this quake look as bad as

well in terms of magnitude slightly higher at six point nine to six point four but basically because it came so quickly after the last one many of the most vulnerable vulnerable residents of lombok are already in camps have vacated their homes and there are already much much he worked worse than there were just last week so looking at the casualties will be fewer this time around but yes the magnitude is greater than the one last. critical about to go in and she caught thank you thanks. and the us protesters have demonstrated that the head course of the national rifle association against the group's role in blocking stricter gun control laws protest is called the tougher background checks to buy as a gun ban on assault weapons but supporters of the powerful gun lobby also came to voice their opposition against such restrictions c.w. sky richardson reports now from fairfax virginia. in
