Venezuela has recalled its ambassador to Colombia, after Colombian officials accused Venezuela of hosting rebels on its territory.

Nicolas Maduro, Venezuela's foreign minister, said on Friday that the ambassador was brought home for "consultations", in the most recent diplomatic spat between the two neighbours.

Colombia announced on Thursday, for the first time, that it had proof of its long-held belief that members of guerrilla armies such as the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (Farc)and the National Liberation Army (ELN) are based in jungles on Venezuela's side of the border.

Venezuela rejected the charges in a statement released on Friday, calling the Colombian announcement a "pathetic spectacle".
