Venezuela Security Forces Manage to Push Back Aid Convoys as Clashes Kill at Least Four

At least four people were killed and dozens injured in clashes that broke out in chaotic scenes that included burned trucks and at least 23 soldiers switching loyalties to opposition leader Juan Guaidó, who has been recognized by most of the Western world as the legitimate ruler of Venezuela.
