There were numerous near-simultaneous reports of explosions in several places in Caracas, including military installations.

La Carlota, a military airfield in the centre of the city, and the main military base of Fuerte Tiuna were described by eyewitnesses as having been affected, with video circulating of apparent explosions at both.

Several of the surrounding communities are without power. There are unconfirmed reports of planes flying over the city.

The developments come at a moment of heightened tension between the US and Venezuela as Washington keeps up its military strikes on speedboats in the Caribbean allegedly carrying drugs.

The US says the Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro was illegitimately elected and is personally involved in drug-smuggling through the country.

The Venezuelan Government say recent actions by Washington – which include the confiscation of sanctioned oil tankers – are part of an effort to force the removal of President Maduro from power and control Venezuela’s oil reserves.

Videos show numerous Chinooks and other helicopters, allegedly from the 160th SOAR flying above Caracas as airstrikes hit nearby. As of 2:30AM EST, there is no official confirmation from the U.S. military.

Insane. One country can’t violate sovereignty like this, especially on “trumped” up charges of … trafficking narcotics? And it’s reported congress/foreign affairs wasn’t consulted. Dude was and is a war criminal.

Not a fan of dictators or most drugs but come on, really? :

Footage sent from Caracas showing reported "colectivos" (people who back the regime) deployed in Caracas.

He says they are shooting at passing cars. Other reports talks about arrests taking place by regime loyalists.

I wonder what they'll say at 11.

True. Until you learn that it took less than an hour for it to be over. Less time than most people's lunch breaks. So fast that there are STILL people online complaining about an "active war" that does not exist. Lol.
