The world woke up to chaos.<\/p>\n
In the dead of night, Donald Trump says he ordered a strike that ripped through Venezuela\u2019s defenses and<\/p>\n
ended with Nicolas Maduro in U.S. custody.<\/p>\n
Helicopters over Caracas. Explosions in the dark. Power cut, phones dead.<\/p>\n
A dictator vanished into an unmarked plane.<\/p>\n
In a single pre-dawn announcement, Trump claimed responsibility for<\/p>\n
what could become one of the most consequential U.S. operations in Latin America in decades.<\/p>\n
According to his Truth Social post, American special operators and law enforcement moved in tandem,<\/p>\n
striking Venezuelan military targets before Delta Force allegedly seized Maduro and his wife, spiriting them out of the country under cover of darkness.<\/p>\n
The operation, if confirmed as described, would not only decapitate a regime long accused of narco-trafficking and repression,<\/p>\n
but also plunge an already fractured nation into a new and dangerous uncertainty.<\/p>\n
Venezuelans awoke to reports of explosions, helicopters, and sudden blackouts, with no clear sense of who now holds power in Caracas.<\/p>\n
As the world waits for the promised press conference, one reality is unavoidable: the balance of power in the Western Hemisphere may have shifted overnight, and there is no going back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
