San Cristobal : épicentre de la révolte – 5/21 février 2014 » A man looks on February 21

A man looks on February 21, 2014 at an old light tank which stood as a monument at a square in San Cristobal, capital of the western border state of Tachira, Venezuela, and was burnt and used as barricade to block a road during a protest yesterday. The Venezuelan government ordered paratroopers Thursday to this border city where growing student protests began over two weeks ago, with President Nicolas Maduro angrily rejecting US calls for dialogue. The nationwide demonstrations, led by students and the opposition, have left at least four people dead and dozens hurt in the biggest challenge to Maduro since he took power from the late Hugo Chavez last year.
