Access to Instagram, Twitter and Periscope was reportedly restricted by state-run Internet service provider CANTV (AS8048), as opposition leader Juan Guaidó delivers a livestreamed speech from Plaza Brión in Chacaíto, Caracas.
OONI data corroborates the reports of blocks against social media platforms.
The interruption is the latest in a series of intermittent Internet access blocks imposed by the government since January this year as it tries to contain protests led by the opposition, the National Assembly of Venezuela.
