The protest began with the burning of tires that forced the presence of the Bolivarian National Police and the Bolivarian National Guard, who managed to dissuade the protesters who demanded a solution to the electricity crisis throughout the Merida State in the Venezuelan Andes.
They assured that every three hours they suffer power outages, which leads to the loss of food and accentuates the economic and social crisis of this important jurisdiction of the Pan American axis.
