Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro said a stolen police helicopter fired on the country's Interior Ministry and Supreme Court on Tuesday in what he called a "terrorist attack" by those seeking to oust him from office.
Maduro vowed to catch those behind the attack, which had no reported injuries.
Minister of Communications and Information Ernesto Villegas later said the helicopter fired 15 shots at the ministry building and dropped at least four grenades at the Supreme Court.
Villegas identified the pilot as Oscar Perez. A video posted on social media showed Perez standing in front of several armed men and calling for a rebellion against Maduro's "tyranny," urging the president to step down and for Venezuela to hold new elections.
Some Maduro opponents speculated on social media that Tuesday's attack was staged to justify a crackdown.
Venezuela is one month from a vote on Maduro's plans to rewrite the constitution, which the president says is the only way to bring peace to the country while those opposing the move say it is meant to keep his party in power.
委内瑞拉总统马杜罗说,一架失窃的警方直升机星期二对委内瑞拉内政部和最高法院开火,他说这是“恐怖袭击”,是那些想把他赶下台的人干的。
这次袭击据报没有造成人员伤亡,马杜罗誓言要将肇事者绳之以法。
委内瑞拉信息和通讯部长比列加斯后来说,这架直升机对内政部大楼开了15枪,对最高法院投掷了至少四枚手榴弹。
比列加斯说,直升机驾驶员叫佩雷斯。社交媒体上的视频显示,佩雷斯站在一些武装人员面前,呼吁反抗马杜罗的“暴政”,敦促马杜罗下台,让委内瑞拉举行新选举。
马杜罗的一些反对者在社交媒体上猜测说,星期二的袭击事件是有意安排的,目的是为政府的镇压行动找借口。
再过一个月的时间,委内瑞拉就要投票表决,是否按照马杜罗的计划修订宪法。马杜罗说,这是让委内瑞拉恢复和平的唯一途径,而反对者说,这样做只是为了让马杜罗的政党继续掌权。
