Following US airstrikes and the capture of President Nicolás Maduro, Caracas and surrounding areas are experiencing widespread panic, infrastructure damage, and power outages. Streets are largely empty, shops are closed, and public transport is suspended. An Indian resident, Sunil Malhotra, described long queues at small neighborhood stores and bakeries for essential food items, with pharmacies also seeing crowds. Communication networks are crippled, and residents face difficulties charging phones due to the lack of power.
