The United States conducted a large-scale military strike in Venezuela, resulting in the capture of President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores. President Donald Trump announced the operation, stating they would face drug and terrorism charges in New York and that the US would temporarily "run" Venezuela until a transition. International reactions varied, with some nations condemning the action and others expressing concern. Venezuelan opposition celebrated the move, while the government demanded proof of life. The US also indicated plans to allow American oil companies to operate in Venezuela.
