The U.S. military struck a Venezuelan vessel in the Caribbean, killing 11 Tren de Aragua gang members, as confirmed by President Trump. The strike, targeting a drug-carrying boat in international waters, escalates tensions with Venezuela. Trump claims the gang operates under President Maduro, who denounced the U.S. naval buildup as a "criminal threat" and accused Trump of seeking regime change.

Maduro WARNS Trump against Regime Change attempts | Venezuela faces ‘Biggest Threat’ in 100 years

Tensions between the U.S. and Venezuela have escalated sharply as President Nicolás Maduro accused former President Donald Trump of plotting regime change through military force. U.S. warships, armed with 1,200 missiles and a submarine, have been deployed in the Caribbean, which Maduro labeled the “biggest threat in 100 years.” Defiant, he vowed Venezuela is “super prepared” and warned of a “Republic in Arms” if attacked. Washington denies invasion plans, insisting the buildup targets drug trafficking while doubling its $50 million reward for Maduro’s arrest. #Venezuela #Maduro #Trump #USNavy #CaribbeanCrisis #Geopolitics #RegimeChange #BreakingNews #USVenezuelaTensions #NavalBuildUp #WorldNews #LatinAmerica #RepublicInArms #DrugTrafficking #USPolitics #WashingtonVsCaracas #WarThreat #MilitaryStandoff #GlobalSecurity #MaduroVsTrump #CaribbeanShowdown #CrisisAlert #MaduroDefiant #USDeployment #MissileThreat #VenezuelaCrisis #NarcoticsCartel #InterventionFears #MilitaryEscalation #GlobalConflict ~HT.318~

U.S-Venezuela Full Scale War Soon? U.S Warships Crosses Panama Canal As Venezuele Mobilizes Tanks [Video]

U.S-Venezuela Full Scale War Soon? U.S Warships Crosses Panama Canal As Venezuele Mobilizes Tanks

A U.S. missile cruiser has crossed the Panama Canal, heading toward the Caribbean in what many fear is a prelude to a wider conflict with Venezuela. The USS Lake Erie entered the canal late Friday night and began its eight-hour journey toward the Atlantic, joining a massive U.S. naval deployment near Venezuelan waters. Washington has already stationed eight warships, thousands of Marines, and even a nuclear submarine close to Venezuela’s coast. While U.S. officials claim the mission is aimed at combating drug cartels, critics say the overwhelming firepower suggests a hidden regime change agenda. Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has defiantly warned that the United States cannot invade his country, mobilizing 15,000 troops, drones, and naval assets in response. Caracas’s UN envoy mocked Washington, declaring: “No one fights drug cartels with nuclear submarines.” With the U.S. doubling its bounty on Maduro to $50 million, tensions are nearing breaking point. #USNavy #Venezuela #Maduro #PanamaCanal #USS LakeErie #NuclearSubmarine #CaribbeanCrisis #USWarships #BreakingNews #Washington #Caracas #MilitaryDeployment #LatinAmerica #DrugCartels #ImperialistThreat #VenezuelaCrisis #Geopolitics #RegimeChange #Warships #Conflict ~ED.102~HT.408~
