Reports indicate that during a January 3 raid to capture Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, US forces allegedly used an advanced, unidentified weapon. Eyewitness accounts, shared by the White House press secretary, describe Venezuelan soldiers experiencing intense sound waves, leading to nosebleeds, vomiting blood, and incapacitation. The operation reportedly involved drones and advanced technology, overwhelming Venezuelan forces. While the US has not officially confirmed the weapon's nature or use, former intelligence sources suggest it could be a directed-energy weapon. Venezuela's Interior Ministry confirmed over 100 security personnel were killed during the raid.
