Will Venezuela Retaliate Against United States After President Maduro’s Capture? I GD Bakshi Decodes
Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were captured by the U.S. Army’s Delta Force, according to reports.
Delta Force serves as the U.S. military’s premier counterterrorism unit.
President Donald Trump confirmed the development via a post on his social media platform, Truth Social.
“The United States of America has successfully carried out a large scale strike against Venezuela and its leader, President Nicolas Maduro, who has been, along with his wife, captured and flown out of the Country," Trump wrote.
"This operation was done in conjunction with U.S. Law Enforcement. Details to follow. There will be a News Conference today at 11 A.M., at Mar-a-Lago. Thank you for your attention to this matter!,” the post added.
The capture of a sitting head of state has sparked intense global curiosity regarding the elite American unit that executed the operation.
Often referred to as the "tip of the spear," the 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (1st SFOD-D) represents the pinnacle of the U.S. Army’s tactical capabilities. While the public knows them as Delta Force, within the military community, they are more commonly called The Unit, CAG (Combat Applications Group), or Task Force Green.
The explosions occurred amid sharply heightened tensions between the United States and Venezuela, as President Donald Trump has repeatedly accused Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro of presiding over what he has described as a "narco-terrorist" government. The US has also imposed sanctions on vessels it claims are involved in transporting Venezuelan oil.
Earlier in 2025, the United States had announced a $50 million bounty for any information that could lead to the arrest of Nicolás Maduro. The United States has repeatedly accused Nicolás Maduro of running a transnational drug-trafficking network, an allegation the Venezuelan leader has consistently denied.
After capturing Maduro today, the USA has indicted him on several charges, including narco-terrorism conspiracy, cocaine importation conspiracy into the United States, possession and conspiracy to possess machineguns and destructive devices in connection with those drug offenses.
