Protesters in Venezuela took to the streets again on Friday to demonstrate against a legislative super-body to be elected on Sunday.
Critics have called the vote a plan by President Nicolas Maduro to impose a dictatorship. There were fewer protests on Friday as compared to the demonstrations staged earlier in the week, amid tropical downpours and a government ban on demonstrations.
Venezuelans have been protesting against Maduro for several months, with the country in the grip of a severe economic crisis.
