Caracas, Venezuela
In an outdoor setting, likely Caracas, Venezuela, a group of people, mostly adults, are gathered on a raised concrete platform during what appears to be a political protest or rally. The weather is overcast.
The individuals are actively participating, holding up various signs and posters, many featuring photographs. Several signs display "Antes" (Before) and "Después" (After) images of individuals, presumably political prisoners, showing their appearance before and after detention, with names like "Rodolfo Rodriguez" and "Darwin Ilerde" visible. One sign also references "Karen Hernandez."
Prominent signs express strong political messages in Spanish:
- "S.O.S Mr. Trump. La encargada de Venezuela oprimido a la tercera edad" (S.O.S Mr. Trump. The one in charge of Venezuela oppresses the elderly).
- "MUERA LA TIRANIA VIVA LA LIBERTAD EN VENEZUELA" (Death to tyranny, long live freedom in Venezuela).
- "LIBERTAD PARA TODOS LOS PRESOS POLÍTICOS" (Freedom for all political prisoners).
- "LIBEREN A TODOS LOS PRESOS POLÍTICOS" (Release all political prisoners).
- "ELECCIONES YA!" (Elections now!), accompanied by what appears to be the CNE (National Electoral Council) logo.
Many participants wear or hold items featuring the Venezuelan flag's colors. Their expressions suggest passion and determination, with several people actively shouting or chanting, as evidenced by their open mouths and the clear audio of "Libertad" (Freedom) being chanted repeatedly.
In the background, a blue tent is visible, along with modern buildings and a large yellow construction crane, indicating an urban environment.
A group of people are gathered outside, appearing to protest or demonstrate.
