Venezuela medical students’ group treats injured protesters

At least 37 people have died in Venezuela’s civil unrest, with hundreds more injured.

Security forces are being accused of using excessive force in the face of mass protests against President Nicolas Maduro.

Amid the growing political and economic conflict, a group of medical students, called the Green Helmets, are helping to treat the injured.
