According to ТСН: US President Donald Trump recently announced the decommissioning of a 'large facility' on the territory of Venezuela.

This information was voiced in an interview with WABC radio station, according to CNN. Trump noted that it concerns a large facility related to maritime logistics, from which ships were sent to Venezuela and from its territory.

“We just disabled — I don’t know if you read or saw — they have a large factory or a large facility from where the ships come in. Two nights ago we disabled it. So, we hit them very hard,” Trump stated.

The American president did not provide additional details about the nature of the attack or the location of the facility. White House representatives also did not comment on this information.

It is worth noting that Venezuelan official authorities did not confirm the data about the destruction or damage of any significant facility on their territory.

Potential Consequences

If Donald Trump's words are true, this could mark the first recorded strike by American forces on the mainland of Venezuela. Previously, the US had only conducted attacks on ships that were in the Caribbean Sea and the eastern Pacific Ocean.

Recall that Trump has publicly stated several times about the possibility of strikes on Venezuelan territory.

According to media reports, potential targets could be facilities related to drug production as well as key transportation routes.

The White House had previously ordered US armed forces to focus on implementing the so-called 'quarantine' of Venezuelan oil in the next two months.

Additionally, the US has intensified its military presence in the Caribbean basin near Venezuela, deploying aircraft with special forces and military equipment there.

In the context of these statements, it is worth mentioning that the situation around Venezuela continues to be tense. The US measures, particularly the intensification of military presence, indicate serious intentions from Washington regarding changing the situation in this region. It remains to be seen how events will develop further and how the Venezuelan government will react.
