Caracas, Venezuela’s capital, is unusually quiet as stores and gas stations stay closed a day after Maduro was deposed by the U.S.

A tense quiet prevailed in Venezuela on Sunday, one day after  in an American 

Caracas, Venezuela’s capital, was exceptionally quiet on Sunday with very few vehicles moving about. Most convenience stores, gas stations, and other businesses were shut.

The previous day, lines snaked through shops and outside fuel stations as anxious Venezuelans stocked up on supplies in case unrest erupted. Roads usually filled with runners and cyclists were largely empty, and Venezuela’s presidential palace was guarded by armed civilians and military members.

Outside the capital, in La Guaira state, families whose homes were damaged by blasts during the operation that captured Maduro and his wife were still cleaning up rubble. Some buildings had walls left gaping open.

Following the dramatic upheaval in Venezuela and President Donald Trump’s promise that the U.S. would “run” Venezuela with help from Maduro’s Vice President Delcy Rodríguez, no one in the country seemed to know the current state of affairs or what the future held.

In a low-income neighborhood in eastern Caracas, construction worker Daniel Medalla sat on the steps of a Catholic church and told a few parishioners there would again be no morning Mass.

Medalla speculated the streets remained mostly empty not because people feared another strike, but because they were scared of government repression if they dared to celebrate—coming after a fierce government crackdown during last year’s tense elections.

“We had been longing for this,” said Medalla, 66, of Maduro’s exit.
