Venezuela Frees 88 Prisoners Amidst Post-Election Protest Detentions and U.S. Pressure

Venezuela has released 88 more prisoners, with the government citing a review process ordered by President Nicolas Maduro. While NGOs verified at least 55 releases, some question the total number. Venezuelan NGOs estimate around 900 political prisoners remain, a claim the government disputes, stating those detained sought to destabilize the country. These releases occur amid U.S. pressure and sanctions.
