Venezuela newspapers bombed again

The offices of a leading Venezuelan newspaper group, Capriles, have been attacked for the second time in two months.

Molotov cocktails were thrown at the building, destroying a newspaper delivery truck for La Opinión. But it is thought the attack was meant for the title, Las Noticias. Its director believed the attack may be linked to the paper's editorial line.

In June, a similar incident took place, when motorcycle riders threw homemade bombs at the offices.
