Another night of silence

Caracas experienced another night of silence and empty streets

From CNN's Sol Amaya

Although in daylight Venezuelans seem to be regaining some normalcy in their routines, nighttime remains an empty scene, especially on the streets of Caracas, where tension and uncertainty are palpable as the sun begins to set.

The main roads have little vehicle traffic compared to what nights were like before Saturday, when the United States attacked the capital and captured Nicolás Maduro in a surprise military operation.

Only a few businesses remain open after sunset and there are hardly any pedestrians. People stay sheltered in their homes, while the presence of armed security personnel increases.

Silence prevails at least until dawn, when Caracas residents resume their daily functions and the Venezuelan capital returns to a circulation more similar to usual.
