Washington, D.C. – Former U.S. President Donald Trump has announced the alleged detention and removal of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife from Venezuela. The announcement, made earlier today, claims that Maduro was taken out of the country by air.
“The operation was executed successfully,” Trump stated, offering no further details regarding the circumstances of the reported apprehension. As of now, there has been no official statement or confirmation from the Venezuelan government concerning these claims.
Trump also asserted that the United States had launched extensive strikes within Venezuela. These claims follow reports of a significant aerial assault on Caracas, the Venezuelan capital, earlier Saturday.
According to unconfirmed reports, following the alleged air strikes, President Maduro declared a state of national emergency and called for national mobilization. Witnesses in Caracas reported powerful explosions and widespread power outages, particularly in the southern part of the city near a major military base.
DZWatch is continuing to monitor the situation closely and will provide updates as more information becomes available. The claims made by the former President remain unverified and should be treated with caution until independent confirmation is obtained.
The situation in Venezuela remains tense and any escalation could have significant regional and international implications.
