At least 14 journalists and media employees, including 13 members of international media organisations, were detained in Caracas on Monday, according to the union representing Venezuelan reporters.
Thirteen of those detained were later released, one of whom was deported. One journalist remained in the custody of intelligence services, the National Union of Press Workers (SNTP) said in a post on X. Independent reporting inside Venezuela is severely restricted and authorities have declined visas for foreign journalists to enter the country.
