News Topical, Digital Desk : On the night of January 3rd, the US military raided Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, and arrested President Nicolas Maduro. After completing the mission in just half an hour, American planes took off for New York. But how did this all come so easily for the US?
After the US action in Venezuela, everyone is wondering: How did the US military reach Maduro in just a few minutes? Were there no bodyguards or security forces around Maduro? Were there no defense equipment around the presidential residence?
Maduro's guard narrated his ordeal
According to Maduro's guard, "It was a massacre. There were more than 500 soldiers present in the presidential residence at that time, but we could not do anything even if we wanted to. The US military planes were firing at such a high speed that it seemed as if each soldier was firing 300 bullets per minute."
Maduro's guards have claimed that some strange weapon was used before landing in Caracas.
According to the guard
At one point, they launched something that, I don't know how to describe it, was so powerful. It felt like my head was going to explode. Our noses were bleeding. We were vomiting blood. All the soldiers fell to the ground, unable to move.

Maduro's guard said, “We didn't even hear the ships coming. Our radars suddenly went off. After this, a large number of drones started moving towards us. We had no idea what to do. After this, about 20 American soldiers arrived in about 8 helicopters, who were equipped with modern weapons. We had never seen such weapons before.”
100 people died in the US attack
According to Venezuela's Interior Minister, Diosdado Cabello, 100 people were killed in the US strike. The Cuban government also confirmed the deaths of 32 civilians during the raid. Cuba has long been an ally of Venezuela. Trump, meanwhile, claims that no US soldiers were killed in the strike.
