In a televised intervention, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro announced the interception of two planes used for drug trafficking that entered Venezuela from the north. He emphasized that the national aviation immediately detected another plane involved in this trafficking, which entered through the Caribbean. Maduro mentioned that his country has a law for intercepting these illegal flights. The announcement comes in the context of the United States recently intensifying military maritime and aerial operations against vessels suspected of drug trafficking from Venezuela. Critics of these American actions argue that they represent a significant shift from traditional patrolling methods, involving the use of lethal force in international waters and lacking transparency regarding the evidence justifying these interventions.
