  • 3 January 2026 | US Strikes Venezuela and capture Maduro
    US President Donald Trump said on Saturday that the United States had carried out a “large-scale” strike against Venezuela, describing the operation as successful. In a post on his Truth Social platform, he claimed that Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife had been captured and removed from the country, adding that the action was conducted alongside U.S. law enforcement. Trump also announced that a press conference would be held later that day at Mar-a-Lago.

    U.S. media outlets, including CBS News and Fox News, reported that American forces were conducting strikes on Caracas, citing unnamed Trump administration officials. Reuters also quoted a U.S. official confirming American involvement. According to CBS, Trump had approved land strikes days earlier, with the operation initially planned around Christmas but delayed due to other U.S. military actions abroad and unfavorable weather conditions.
