A twelve hour drive lies ahead of ses are in quite a convoy from the Venezuelan Capital Caracas to the colombian border this road was once lined by huge fields of sugar cane but the late president hugo chavez expropriated millions of acres of farms and ranches because of Government Mismanagement the fields are no longer cultivated the country even has to import sugar. Typical farms have been abandoned. All of the money that was invested here is lost. It that we have neither the sugar cane that used to be cultivated here and gave a sugar nor do we have the vegetables that were supposed to be grown here to feed the venezuelan people. And as with. The result is a hunger crisis more than Three Million venezuelans have fled the country after syria its the worlds biggest refugee crisis. Neither sees our buddies nor one quite knows convoy are Making Headway the road is closed. In a moment. Believe or not weve been stuck in this traffic jam for over an hour and the information we have is that the government so either the military or the police have parked a truck sideways across the other end of The Cabrera Tunnel to block the convoy from passing through it i.

That Nicolas Maduro knows this week then the International Community could launch investigations

People who once believed in this project but dont any more coming in so. Volunteers are waiting at the colombian side of the border most are venezuelans

Got at this moment hes in colombia giving a Press Conference together with the president s of park y. And columbia and the secretary general of the organization of american states luis. De lorean theyre calling on the Venezuelan Military to stop the violence and allow. Humanitarian aid into the country but id say fill out your name say that meeting and give her a little money but. By letting the aid in the military would be sending a clear message that it recognizes why dont as Interim Leader by stopping the supplies at the border it would show it remains loyal to mudra so theres far more
at stake here than just aid its about the power of images and a showdown between two men who both claim to be venezuelas legitimate president. I know what im arguing for going on that weve come as far as we can go on the bridge. And we cant go any further because the Colombian Police have cordoned it off putting. In clinton at the end of the bridge the containers and the tanker truck are blocking the entrance to the bridge and then in seem like a cement they go overboard on the truck we can see a Camera Person and a journalist who are looking over at our side. Only own come our order for yet up and say must be waiting to see if something happens on this side of the colombian venezuelan border and i do recall that on the island said theyre. There enough and there are one or more and its one on a. Little bit. On the colombian side of the last twenty to international bridge all the cameras are
pointed toward venezuela. But nothing happens. But there. Are several hours pass and still nothing happens. But this is what the entrance to the ten dieters bridge into that and looks like the guy who pulled up the flow back in say the trucks carrying the humanitarian. Aid and the people who follow the money that is the robin hood where these trucks going by. Car carrying her car behind bars. From a total rain yellow bar to these trucks are now going to rain. A rainy night is when the venezuelan side of the Santander Bridge and its over this
bridge that the aid convoy wants to try to cross the border. But moments later one of the trucks goes up in flames on the Santander Bridge and ultra cation erupt between demonstrators and Venezuelan Security forces it was the federal i mean here i crossed the border line here between venezuela and colombia on this entente a bridge the tear gas attacks began looking more into the port it is for the board until there were not a wave and now you can see lots of men throwing stones toward the venezuelan side of the lens i know peered out when you see them were. There ill cover them now but Tear Gas Cartridge went off right next to the journalists he got not gun that he had just been fired it was no no you a bit of a gun then i sent one up though it hopefully no one was hit. Any philosophy and it was tossed into the river right away but the smell still quite strong. Was that i
was almost throwing Molotov Cocktails careful knocking they could set fire to the truck that was. No. It was. No one here knows which side set the truck on fire or whether they did it on purpose or by accident. Oh. Come on a little bit i think we can see that a truck is going up in flames that night and got up a medal at the first truck that tried to cross the bridge operated by that and then there quoting from a few of. The phone the people fighting here say it was the Venezuelan Police who set the truck on fire when in full view an audio going its an Honor Killing fan the out of every gun and of her own daughter was
a Propaganda War Rages in the media and Social Networks some blame a duro Security Forces and call for a Military Intervention in their eyes the burning truck is a symbol of materials flagrant violation of human rights others believe majoritys opponent set the fire to discredit him but maybe it was simply an accident. Was five. Some of the Relief Supplies onboard can be salvaged. But on this day not a single aid package makes it across the border from colombia to venezuela. Many peoples hopes have been dashed that the military would switch sides. Meanwhile in caracas president maduro announces that he is severing diplomatic relations with colombia and closing the borders between the two countries. You will. See. The border between venezuela and colombia has now been closed for two days but people are still crossing back and forth using whats known as truck jus illegal trails that lead right through the river its a dangerous route as the torch as. Are controlled by criminal gangs anyone who wants to cross over here must pay. For something the police and military on both sides of the border simply look the
other way. For. Our young venezuelan refugees have gathered under the border bridge some are still children they call themselves loud resistance yeah the resistance to the material regime. But we mustnt we didnt get through because they just smirked at us but he who laughs last last specificity will give me more. And who will that be. Good order some of us read it looks like a Military Intervention is off the table. As it were you know it is our own history and no one knows if why dole will return to venezuela today this. Newly seen anywhere on the tube. In la so the game still wide open. To. The. Now fight. Fight. Fight and. If the political candidate then i mean right now were reporting from the cmon bully our bridge where the Venezuelan National guard has advanced almost to the colombian border for longer. The young people enter frustration at the Venezuelan Police on the other side of the bridge pelting them with stir. Cones and sticks. People are injured.
