US Claims Capture of Venezuelan President Maduro Amid National Emergency
In a stunning turn of events, President Donald Trump announced that the United States has conducted a “large scale strike against Venezuela,” claiming the capture of President Nicolás Maduro and his wife. The announcement came early Saturday morning after targeted strikes were executed on the capital, Caracas, plunging the South American nation into a state of national emergency.
This provocative military action has intensified tensions between the US and Venezuela, with the Venezuelan government swiftly rejecting the claims. Authorities in Caracas condemned what they described as “extremely serious military aggression” perpetrated by the Trump administration, accusing it of violating Venezuela’s sovereignty and international law.
The ramifications of the strike are likely to provoke a strong response from both sides and could escalate into wider regional conflict. Observers are left questioning the long-term implications of this unprecedented military move, as both nations brace for potential retaliatory actions and political fallout.
The strike has led to chaotic scenes in the Venezuelan capital, with citizens grappling with uncertainty and fear. The international community is closely monitoring the situation, as diplomatic channels are strained and discussions on possible sanctions and responses are underway.
As Venezuela grapples with political turmoil and economic hardship, the timing of this military action raises further questions about US foreign policy and its approach to Latin America. The world watches closely as this situation unfolds, with the potential for broader implications not only for the countries involved but for regional stability as well.

Just to get the. buga sphere
"Muerte Dolor y Destruccion" is what the government of Venezuela has caused to the country since 98 when Chavez took power and initiated his reign of terror and crime. more than 10 million people has left Venezuela and many millions more had died in the country even years before any USA intervention and no one said anything !!!!
Typical political distraction.
Same what happened 23 years ago,, why they don't invade a Russia?! Oh i know they have nukes!!!, how long the world will still suffer from the American rascit criminal regime?!!
Another Year – Another War….
Amen 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Now the police need to capture felon trump and put him in prison
I presume the EU, and Uk are now going to sanction the U.S. for invading a democratic country and an illegal capture of its leader…… the hypocrisy is off the scale.
Why are the bbc not reporting what’s happening in Iran😂😂
Those who doubt will lose. President Trump was anointed by God to sanitize America and bring peace to the world. Today peace has come to Venezuela people and to families of those dying in drugs addict. Good job to King David of our time., President Trump. From the current prophet from Umuezumezu
International law has become a stock joke
Every time America topples regimes it doesn’t like, it always ends up being disastrous for the country. Because they have never had a plan to deal with the inevitable power vacuum
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 God bless PRESIDENT Trump
STOP Calling Maduro a President !!!! Educate yourself, Edmundo Gonzalez is the president and was elected by 80% of Venezuelans in 2025, Maduro just stayed there in power….
Did she just call Venezuela an illegitimate government?
Enjoy this win America it will be one of the last before your destruction which the world will be glad to see 🙏
Oil oil and oil. This war is for capturing and stealing the oil from the country.
is America the new Russia? With this invation Trump has no chance of the Nopbel Pease Prise.
That was surprisingly easy to capture Maduro. He probably made a deal to stay alive.
Now we all know why mr. Trump us doing hardly anything towards Russia. He is doing the same in Venezuela as Putin wants in Ukraine. Just a short time and Xi will go for Taiwan. ..
BASED AF

😂😂😂😂😂😂 Now go kidnap Kim jong UN in North korea
That was super quick 😅 excellent job 🇺🇸👍 , Russian built defence systems didn't work out
What’s trump’s problem with the Venezuela president
Venezuela has a similar sized population to Pennsylvania but boy do they have a lot of oil. Cant think why America saw the need to invade yet another country.
Nearly all the comments here are just as dumb as Trump in term of politics and history….
Venezuela holds the world's largest proven oil reserves, with over 300 billion barrels, significantly more than any other country, followed by Saudi Arabia, Iran
Peace in the Middle East, no wars, booming economy, no Epstein connection, literally falling apart, physically and mentally, and without doubt a superb natural head of hair. I wish he was my president.
