American military forces have launched an invasion of Venezuela, carrying out a series of air strikes on military targets across the country, including the Tovar Air Base and the General Francisco de Miranda Air Base. The La Guaira Naval Base in Vargas, located in northern Venezuela, was also attacked; this base houses a military academy. Reports indicate that at least six targets were attacked, and thick smoke rose over parts of Caracas.
Initial reports show that the American invasion is not limited to aerial attacks; ground invasions are also taking place. The CH-47G "Chinook" heavy helicopter from the US Army's 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment has been spotted flying over Caracas, the capital of Venezuela. In addition, AH-64 "Apache" attack helicopters and CH-53 "Jolly Green Giant" heavy helicopters from the US Marines have been deployed, conducting vertical landings on multiple islands in Venezuela.
The Venezuelan Air Force urgently deployed Su-30MK2V fighter jets to intercept US fighter jets and helicopters. Venezuelan President Maduro strongly condemned the US invasion and called on the Venezuelan military and civilians to retaliate against the US invasion.
