The U.S. carried out major strikes in the Venezuelan capital of Caracas and captured the country’s president, Nicolas Maduro, and flew him out of the country, President Trump said early Saturday.
Mr. Maduro’s wife was also captured in the operation, Mr. Trump announced. Their whereabouts weren’t immediately clear.
Low-flying aircraft were reportedly seen flying over Caracas early Saturday after multiple explosions rang out in the city.
Details on the mission weren’t immediately disclosed. Mr. Trump said he will address the nation later Saturday morning.
“The United States of America has successfully carried out a large-scale strike against Venezuela and its leader, President Nicolas Maduro, who has been, along with his wife, captured and flown out of the Country,” the president said on Truth Social. “This operation was done in conjunction with U.S. Law Enforcement. Details to follow.”
In a brief phone interview, Mr. Trump told The New York Times that the operation involved “a lot of good planning and lot of great, great troops and great people.”
“It was a brilliant operation, actually,” the president said.
