The Embassy Protection Collective activists have been camped out inside the embassy for weeks, at the invitation of Venezuelan diplomats, anticipating that the country's opposition movement headed by Juan Guaido will soon attempt to take over the property, ONA reports citing Sputnik.

"Three people were arrested," the officer said.

Witnesses at the embassy confirmed the account, saying two of the individuals were part of an activist group called the Embassy Protection Collective, which has for the last few weeks been guarding the property from an illegal takeover by the Venezuelan opposition.
