Excerpt:

On Wednesday, October 26, 2016, the Venezuelan opposition convened nationwide demonstrations against the government of President Nicolas Maduro, protesting the national electoral body's decision to temporarily suspend preparations for a presidential recall referendum pending investigations into fraud.
