"Venezuela is the latest country to be hit by US strikes as the Trump administration ramps up military interventions. This week, United States President Donald Trump confirmed that the US had struck a docking facility in Venezuela, marking the first military action on the South American country's land since it began targeting Venezuelan shipping in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific in September 2025."
"There was a major explosion in the dock area where they load the boats up with drugs, he said. They load the boats up with drugs, so we hit all the boats, and now we hit the area. It's the implementation area. That's where they implement. And that is no longer around. Trump did not reveal more details about the strikes."
