flag U.S. strikes a vessel off Venezuela, citing unverified drug links, sparking debate over military escalation and false narratives.

flag In September 2025, the U.S. military conducted a strike on a vessel off Venezuela’s coast, citing drug trafficking by groups linked to Venezuela’s government, though evidence for these claims remains unverified. flag President Trump hailed the operation as a major victory, suggesting a possible land invasion and claiming destruction of drugs capable of killing 25,000 people. flag Despite official data showing most fentanyl comes from Mexico and cocaine primarily flows via the Pacific, the U.S. deployed thousands of troops and F-35 jets under the pretext of interdiction. flag Critics, including former UN officials and Venezuelan analysts, argue the narrative of a powerful Venezuelan cartel is fabricated to justify sanctions, military escalation, and regime change, warning that expanding military power through drug and terrorism rhetoric sets a dangerous precedent.
