Autoridades dijeron que la situación estaba controlada tras la captura de Maduro.” This tweet referenced both security incidents around the presidential palace and official statements claiming the situation was under control following the capture of Nicolás Maduro.
Shortly after, at 01:35 UTC, La Nación added: “Disparos cerca del palacio presidencial de Venezuela, en Caracas”. This message reiterated reports of gunfire near Venezuela’s presidential palace.
Later that day at 01:42 UTC, La Nación shifted focus to Costa Rican politics with another post: “Un video de campaña de Claudia Dobles identifica con datos incorrectos a una mujer que resulta ser la esposa de un candidato a diputado de la misma coalición, según registros oficiales.” The tweet pointed out that a campaign video by Claudia Dobles incorrectly identified a woman who is actually married to another candidate from the same coalition.
