#1 From the NYT:

Another video posted on social media on Tuesday showed a uniformed man identified as Oscar Pérez, flanked by masked, heavily armed men dressed in uniforms, taking responsibility for the operation. The speaker said he represented a coalition of military, police and civilian personnel who opposed what he called “this transitional, criminal government.”

#3 Perez is supposed to be an agent of Venezuela's FBI, who stole one of their helicopters, and had it dragging a freedom banner before attacking the court building, and then landing.
