The US military has conducted strikes against various targets in Venezuela, prompting accusations from the Venezuelan government of serious military aggression aimed at both civilian and military installations. President Maduro has declared a national emergency in response to the attacks, which have resulted in at least seven explosions and widespread panic among residents. The US government has confirmed the strikes, which come after a period of increased tensions and threats from the Trump administration against the Maduro regime. Colombia has called for emergency meetings with the UN and OAS to address the situation, which continues to unfold as Caracas blames the US for the chaos and destruction in the city.
