'Right now my body is trembling from what is happening... I don't know what to tell you,' she said on air.

The information once again placed the figure of dictator Maduro at the center of international debate and the accusations of authoritarianism, corruption, and human rights violations.

Millions of people, both in Venezuela and abroad, followed the developments closely, especially the Venezuelan diaspora, which faces prolonged exile and social fragmentation.

From Washington, the American president described the operation as the start of an accountability phase after decades of allegations against chavismo.

'The United States has carried out a large-scale attack against Venezuela and its leader, President Nicolás Maduro, was captured and transported by plane along with his wife, out of the country,' Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social network.

Trump's message arrived after the United States carried out a large-scale attack on Caracas.
