Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, whose victory in the recent election is widely disputed, has publicly accused billionaire Elon Musk of being behind various 'attacks against Venezuela,' including an alleged 'computer hacking' at the National Electoral Council.

Maduro, aligning himself with Russian and Chinese experts, announced a committee to investigate these incidents.

While opposition figures dismiss the hacking claims as self-sabotage, Musk has used social media to criticize Maduro, supporting opposition leader Maria Corina Machado and calling the election results a travesty.

Maduro retaliated, accusing Musk of an international conspiracy and challenging him directly.

The online conflict underlines the deepening political turmoil in Venezuela.
