In a significant military move, the US has deployed 10 F-35 stealth fighter jets to Puerto Rico as part of an intensified effort to combat drug cartels in the Caribbean. This escalation comes amidst growing tensions with Venezuela, prompting statements from President Trump regarding the potential for military action. Reports suggest that the deployment aims to address the increasing drug trafficking activities believed to funnel narcotics into the US. As part of this initiative, US Navy warships are also engaged in operations in the Caribbean, highlighting a broader military presence in the region. Additionally, Trump has threatened to take action against Venezuelan military planes, further raising concerns about the stability in the area.
