How the U.S. captured Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro

Gen. Dan Caine, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said at Trump's news conference that U.S. forces had rehearsed their maneuvers for months, learning everything about Maduro — where he was and what he ate, as well as details of his pets and the clothes he wore. Caine said that on Friday night, "the weather broke just enough, clearing a path that only the most skilled aviators in the world could move through.” He said helicopters flew low to the water to enter Venezuela and were covered above by protective U.S. aircraft. The raid was a dramatic escalation from a series of strikes the U.S. military has carried out on what Trump has said were drug carrying boats in the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific Ocean since early September.
