Following the weekend “US aid delivery” standoff on the border between Colombia and Venezuela, US officials as well as multiple mainstream media outlets accused the Maduro government of burning a US aid truck. The reports and statements described this as a confirmation of the inhumanity of the Venezuelan government.
However, it appears that the truck was burned down by US-backed “democratic protestors”.

This video from today shows the guarimberos making Molotov cocktails. Did they use them to set the aid truck on fire? pic.twitter.com/aNFqGVQ0uA
