Eastern Airlines Flight Returns Venezuelan Migrants to Caracas After Pause Following Maduro's Capture

An Eastern Airlines flight carrying 231 Venezuelan migrants deported from the US arrived in Caracas, marking the resumption of deportation flights after a pause since mid-December. This follows the US capture of former Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro on drug trafficking charges. The deportation process had been disrupted amid heightened tensions, including US military actions against suspected drug-smuggling vessels. Meanwhile, US and Venezuelan officials have engaged in high-level meetings amid ongoing political developments.
