President Donald Trump stated the United States has destroyed a dock in Venezuela used by narcotics traffickers.
The action represents a potential major shift in U.S. strategy. It could be the first time American forces have struck a land target inside Venezuela as part of the ongoing military campaign against drug smuggling from Latin America.
The president did not provide further details on the location, timing, or method of the strike. The move significantly escalates direct U.S. military involvement in the region.
