A U.S. Coast Guard official reveals active pursuit of a sanctioned dark fleet vessel linked to Venezuela’s illegal sanctions evasion, flying a false flag and under judicial seizure, following the seizure of an oil tanker off Venezuela’s coast. The tanker seized is not listed under U.S., EU, U.K., or U.N. sanctions, according to data firm Kpler. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confirms the Coast Guard’s pre-dawn operation with Department of Defense support, vowing to stop the illicit movement of sanctioned oil funding narco terrorism in the region. President Trump threatens a total blockade of sanctioned oil tankers to and from Venezuela, prompting Maduro to reject regime change and assert Venezuela’s sovereignty.
