Venezuela sees more protests as moves against opposition leader Juan Guaido deepen crisis

Caracas, Venezuela (CNN)New protests broke out Wednesday in Venezuela in the wake of a move by the nation’s highest court to freeze bank accounts and impose a travel ban on self-declared interim president Juan Guaido.

Supporters of opposition leader Guaido — who is challenging incumbent Nicolás Maduro — took to the streets a day after the court’s chief justice announced the restrictions on Twitter.
“They thought to cause fear, they thought the people of Venezuela would be scared,” Guaido told reporters at Central University.
