Trump Confirms U.S. 'Strike Destroys Drug Submarine' Off Venezuela Amid Soaring Tensions The U.S. military destroyed a submarine in the Caribbean used for drug smuggling, President Donald Trump confirmed Friday. The strike follows prior actions against at least five surface vessels allegedly operated by Venezuelan cartels. Trump emphasized the submarine was “not an innocent group of people” and built to transport massive drug quantities. U.S. media reported survivors were detained on a warship. The president acknowledged CIA operations on Venezuelan soil but declined to confirm if they targeted President Maduro. Venezuela denied links to cartels and condemned foreign interference, while Maduro called for peace and rejected CIA-led coups. Watch
