The Venezuelan government has intensified its actions against foreign nationals by detaining three more Americans, accused of engaging in terrorist activities. The details and timing of their detention remain undisclosed by Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello.

This development follows Venezuela's announcement in December, where dozens of prisoners were released, including 10 Americans. The releases were the result of prolonged discussions between Caracas and Washington, aimed at reducing tensions and addressing human rights concerns.

The recent detainments could potentially reignite diplomatic tensions between the two nations and raise questions about the safety and freedom of foreign nationals in Venezuela.
