CARACAS - Venezuelans staged scattered protests on Sunday over constant power outages and shortages of drinking water in the wake of two major blackouts this month.
Residents on Sunday afternoon spontaneously protested in around 10 neighborhoods of Caracas as well as in parts of the provinces, according to witnesses and social media. Power went out on Sunday morning after flickering intermittently on Saturday. One Reuters witness heard gunshots being fired near where the barricades had been set up, and demonstrators reported that one woman had been injured by gunfire.The government has offered a variety of explanations for the blackouts, ranging from Washington-backed cyberattacks to opposition-linked snipers causing fires at the country’s main hydroelectric dam.
