Venezuelan soldiers arrive to an airport at La Fria, during a special deployment close to the border with Colombia, in Tachira state, Venezuela August 31, 2015. Venezuela and Colombia each recalled their ambassadors to the other country on Thursday, amid a diplomatic crisis sparked when socialist-run Venezuela closed two border crossings and deported over a thousand Colombians. Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro shut the crossings last week after a shootout between smugglers and troops wounded three soldiers. He later extended the closing indefinitely and has characterized the deportations as a crackdown on paramilitary gangs. REUTERS/Carlos Eduardo Ramirez
