US President Trump claims capture of Venezuela’s Maduro

President Donald Trump said the US has “captured” Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, and flown them out of the country following what he described as “large-scale” U.S. strikes. Venezuela’s government earlier accused Washington of attacking civilian and military sites across multiple states, rejecting what it called “military aggression” and declaring a national emergency. US Attorney General Pamela Bondi said on X that Maduro and Flores face charges in a New York court, including narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine importation, and weapons offenses.
