Shots were fired late Monday near Venezuela’s presidential palace.

Axar.az informs, citing CNN, Venezuela’s Ministry of Communication and Information said police fired at drones that were “flying without permission.”

“No confrontation occurred, and the entire country is completely calm,” the ministry said. It did not say who might have been flying the drones.

A White House official told CNN they are closely tracking the reports of gunfire out of Venezuela, but noted that “the US is not involved.”

Discussions between paramilitary groups associated with the regime and heard by CNN indicate the gunfire was related to ongoing confusion between different security groups operating near the Miraflores presidential palace.

A member of one of these groups, called colectivos, can be heard calling for support and backup, following “confrontations” at the palace and that “several shots were heard.”

Then, another member can be heard saying there was a “misunderstanding” and confusion after shots were fired. The speaker said the situation was now calm.

Later, what appears to be the first speaker said that a drone that had been flying in the area was fired upon by members of the Miraflores Police and palace security, but the situation was now “under control.”
