At Colombia border, Venezuelans hunger for aid

Cúcuta (Colombia) (AFP) - Yajaira Gonzalez cries as she gathers with hundreds of other Venezuelans across the Colombian border from her homeland. A 64-year-old with greying hair, she used to back the socialist regime in her native Venezuela -- until her country's economic meltdown forced her to flee. Now she is begging Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro to let through foreign humanitarian aid -- food, medicine and personal hygiene gear -- to her desperate compatriots back home.
