A U.S. Air Force tanker nearly collided with another aircraft near Venezuela, prompting an investigation.

A second near midair collision involving a U.S. Air Force tanker aircraft has been reported in international airspace near Venezuela, according to CNN. The U.S. Air Force confirmed the incident but provided no details on the aircraft, location, or time, stating no damage or injuries occurred. Venezuela said it monitored the event and reported it to international aviation authorities. This follows a similar near miss earlier in 2025 involving a U.S. military aircraft in the region. The Air Force has launched an internal review, and authorities are assessing radar and flight data, though no immediate safety threats have been identified.
