Trump Announces Press Conference on Maduro Capture Raid

Following the early-morning US helicopter raid in Caracas that captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife—confirmed by AG Pam Bondi—President Donald Trump posted details on Truth Social and scheduled a press conference for 11 a.m. at Mar-a-Lago.

In a Truth Social post, Trump stated that American security forces executed a large-scale raid, capturing Maduro and his wife and transporting them out of Venezuela. "America has successfully executed a large-scale raid against Venezuela... More details will be provided later. There will be a press conference today at 11 AM at Mar-a-Lago," he wrote.

This follows initial reports of the 2 a.m. assault on Caracas (see earlier coverage in this series) and Bondi's confirmation of New York indictments. No further official responses from Venezuela yet, as global attention intensifies on potential charges and regional implications.
