The Venezuelan government announced on Saturday that Caracas has revoked Brazil's authorization to represent Argentina's interests within the country, including managing the embassy where six opposition figures have sought refuge.

In a statement, Venezuela declared the decision took effect "immediately" due to evidence that the embassy was being used to orchestrate assassination plots against President Nicolas Maduro and Vice President Delcy Rodriguez Gomez.

On Friday evening, opposition members staying at the Argentine embassy reported via X that the building was under surveillance and had lost power.

Videos posted online showed individuals in black clothing, accompanied by patrols from Venezuela's intelligence agency, SEBIN.

Venezuela severed relations with Argentina after a disputed presidential election on July 28, in which the National Electoral Council declared President Maduro won.

Since then, the US-backed opposition forces have been intensifying their efforts to sabotage his victory.

They have propagated allegations of electoral fraud and asserted that their preferred candidate, Edmundo Gonzalez, was the rightful winner.

Maduro has accused the opposition of triggering political instability and vowed to crack down on those complicit in sabotage operations.
