In Venezuela, President Nicolás Maduro has blocked access to the X social media platform for 10 days amid rising tensions over the disputed results of last month’s presidential election. Maduro accused his rivals of weaponizing the platform against him and accused X owner Elon Musk of spreading hate.

In other developments, Venezuela’s Supreme Court found opposition candidate Edmundo González, who claims he won the election, to be in contempt of court after he ignored a court summons mandating his presence for an audit of the election. This comes as Venezuela’s top prosecutor is launching a criminal probe into González and fellow opposition leader María Corina Machado after the pair called on the military to abandon its support for Maduro and stop cracking down on protesters. Meanwhile, Chile’s leftist President Gabriel Boric said he “does not recognize Maduro’s self-proclaimed victory.”
