Both Spanish assaults on 20 and 29 June on the city of La Victoria by captain Domingo de Monteverde against the forces of Francisco de Miranda were repulsed by the Venezuelan forces entrenched in the city and Monterverde fell back to San Mateo.

Meanwhile, in Puerto Cabello, the Spanish prisoners of war held there, took control of the San Felipe Castle and at the same time, a slave rebellion near Caracas broke out.

Monteverde did not honour the conditions of the ceasefire and several days later arrested many patriots who had been granted amnesty, including Francisco de Miranda, who would die in prison.

The First Venezuelan Republic came to an end when Monteverde's forces entered Caracas on 1 August.
