Tensions between the United States and Venezuela have escalated sharply amid a US anti-drug campaign in the Caribbean. Washington has carried out six strikes on vessels since September, killing at least 27 people, with survivors reported for the first time. President Donald Trump accuses Venezuela of fuelling drug flows and has authorised CIA covert operations inside the country, with possible land missions under consideration. The US has deployed warships, fighter jets, and troops to the region. Venezuela has condemned the actions as "extrajudicial executions" and asked the UN Security Council to investigate, calling the operations an attempt to topple President Nicolás Maduro.
