The Venezuelan Ministry for the Penitentiary Service announced on August 18 a cooperation agenda with the ICRC, including visits to the INOF and a bilateral meeting.

Clippve demands that the cooperation include El Rodeo I, Yare, and Fuerte Guaicaipuro, where family members have reported torture, mistreatment, isolation, and poor conditions.

Clippve formally requested ICRC, UN, and CIDH access to detention centers on August 7 during the 'Libertad Sin Fronteras' action.

The organization expresses caution based on past experiences where cooperation announcements did not lead to effective access.
