US President Donald Trump announced a “large scale strike” against Venezuela that resulted in the capture of President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, who were reportedly flown out of the country. Trump described the operation, conducted with U.S. law enforcement, as a success, praising the planning and execution. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau declared that Maduro will “finally face justice for his crimes,” following months of U.S. accusations of his involvement in drug trafficking. A news conference is scheduled for further details.
