Shots were fired late Monday near Venezuela's presidential palace, witnesses said, with a source close to the government adding the situation was under control, after US forces ousted Nicolas Maduro in a weekend raid.
Unidentified drones flew over the Miraflores palace in central Caracas and security forces opened fire in response around 8:00 pm (0000 GMT), the source said, hours after Maduro's deputy Delcy Rodriguez was sworn in as interim president following his removal.
