has to reveal the evidence that backs the claim because there's a lot of skepticism to bear in their claim that it was how this was president he planned to have had over fifty assassination plots against my guru and his career has planned 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 cong 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 swell up 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. soldiers my 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 at say accusations seconding at the moment the little evidence at this stage have we have from the accused well the opposition has been very quiet. and this is the situation but there

is. one of the groups the opposition groups has says 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 government is constitutional and as should be made such is not violence actions against the government also in the venezuelan capital caracas thank you for your reporting and analysis. and 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 after a vintage airplane crashed in the swiss alps on saturday the world war two aircraft smashed into a mountainside smells of shootaround two thousand five hundred meters after taking off from lookout know the plane was carrying it seventeen passengers and three crew . wildfires have kicked up in southern portugal over one of the hottest
