On Wednesday, Venezuelan security forces including the Army and National Guard conducted a special operation with more than 11,000 personnel to regain control of the prison grounds. Venezuela Minister of the Interior and Justice, Admiral Remigio Ceballos, speaks during a press conference in the Tocoron prison in Aragua State, Venezuela, on September 23.

Rains on Saturday night swept large tree trunks and debris from surrounding mountains into Las Tejerias, 40 miles (67 kilometers) southwest of Caracas, and damaging businesses and farmland. At least 36 people have been killed by the floods while 56 remain missing, Remigio Ceballos, vice president of citizen security area, told reporters in Las Tejerias on Monday. "The water swept me away," she said, adding that she eventually found refuge on a platform where there was no current.
