Amid rising tensions with the U.S., Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro rallied supporters in Caracas, brandishing the sword of Simón Bolívar and warning of "imperialist aggression." Maduro urged Venezuelans to prepare for confrontation, framing the situation as a struggle against external threats. His address followed months of U.S. maritime strikes targeting alleged drug trafficking vessels. President Trump announced the U.S. would expand its anti-drug trafficking efforts to land operations, claiming maritime interdiction had significantly reduced drug flow by sea. Trump stated these traffickers are responsible for countless deaths in the U.S. and warned them to cease their activities.
