US orders diplomats' families to leave Venezuelan capital
President Donald Trump
Washington - Egypt Today
The United States is ordering relatives of American diplomats to leave the Venezuelan capital ahead of a polarizing vote planned for Sunday to start rewriting the country's constitution, ABC news reported.
The State Department says it's also allowing U.S. government workers to depart the embassy in Caracas and limiting the movement of those who stay.
An updated travel warning also urges American citizens not to travel to Venezuela due to social unrest and violence.
The ordered departure comes three days before President Nicolas Maduro's government plans to hold a vote for an assembly tasked with overhauling the country's charter.
Maduro's opposition says the election rules are rigged to strengthen his hold on power.
