The United States conducted its first strike on a facility in Venezuela, using drones to attack port infrastructure used by drug cartels.<\/strong> This is reported by the CNN<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/strong> citing sources in the US administration.<\/p>\n According to the TV channel, it is a remote port facility on the coast Venezuela<\/span><\/span>, used by a criminal organisation Tren de Aragua<\/span><\/span> for the storage and transportation of drugs. The facility was unoccupied at the time of the attack, so there were no casualties or injuries.<\/p>\n The drone strike destroyed warehouses and several boats involved in smuggling operations. At the same time, CNN's interlocutors note that the attack was more symbolic, as there are many similar ports and transshipment points along the Venezuelan coast.<\/p>\n As the TV channel clarifies, it was this strike that was publicly mentioned the day before by Donald Trump<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, without disclosing the details of the operation. According to CNN, the decision to attack was made as part of a broader strategy to combat drug trafficking in the Western Hemisphere.<\/p>\n This is the first known case of a direct US strike on a facility in Venezuela. Previously, US forces had only conducted operations against smugglers' boats in international waters, without directly entering Venezuelan territory.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u0421\u0428\u0410 \u0437\u0430\u0432\u0434\u0430\u043b\u0438 \u0434\u0440\u043e\u043d\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0433\u043e \u0443\u0434\u0430\u0440\u0443 \u043f\u043e \u043f\u043e\u0440\u0442\u0443 \u043d\u0430 \u0443\u0437\u0431\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0436\u0436\u0456 \u0412\u0435\u043d\u0435\u0441\u0443\u0435\u043b\u0438 \u0421\u0428\u0410 \u0432\u043f\u0435\u0440\u0448\u0435 \u0437\u0434\u0456\u0439\u0441\u043d\u0438\u043b\u0438 \u0443\u0434\u0430\u0440 \u043f\u043e \u043e\u0431\u2019\u0454\u043a\u0442\u0443 \u043d\u0430 \u0442\u0435\u0440\u0438\u0442\u043e\u0440\u0456\u0457 \u0412\u0435\u043d\u0435\u0441\u0443\u0435\u043b\u0438, \u0437\u0430\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0441\u0443\u0432\u0430\u0432\u0448\u0438 \u0431\u0435\u0437\u043f\u0456\u043b\u043e\u0442\u043d\u0438\u043a\u0438 \u0434\u043b\u044f \u0430\u0442\u0430\u043a\u0438 \u043d\u0430 \u043f\u043e\u0440\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0443 \u0456\u043d\u0444\u0440\u0430\u0441\u0442\u0440\u0443\u043a\u0442\u0443\u0440\u0443, \u044f\u043a\u0443 \u0432\u0438\u043a\u043e\u0440\u0438\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0443\u0432\u0430\u043b\u0438 \u043d\u0430\u0440\u043a\u043e\u043a\u0430\u0440\u0442\u0435\u043b\u0456. \u041f\u0440\u043e \u0446\u0435 \u043f\u043e\u0432\u0456\u0434\u043e\u043c\u043b\u044f\u0454 CNN \u0437 \u043f\u043e\u0441\u0438\u043b\u0430\u043d\u043d\u044f\u043c \u043d\u0430 \u0434\u0436\u0435\u0440\u0435\u043b\u0430 \u0432 \u0430\u043c\u0435\u0440\u0438\u043a\u0430\u043d\u0441\u044c\u043a\u0456\u0439 \u0430\u0434\u043c\u0456\u043d\u0456\u0441\u0442\u0440\u0430\u0446\u0456\u0457. \u0417\u0430 \u0434\u0430\u043d\u0438\u043c\u0438 \u0442\u0435\u043b\u0435\u043a\u0430\u043d\u0430\u043b\u0443, \u0439\u0434\u0435\u0442\u044c\u0441\u044f \u043f\u0440\u043e \u0432\u0456\u0434\u0434\u0430\u043b\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0439 \u043f\u043e\u0440\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0438\u0439 \u043e\u0431\u2019\u0454\u043a\u0442 \u043d\u0430 \u0443\u0437\u0431\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0436\u0436\u0456 \u0412\u0435\u043d\u0435\u0441\u0443\u0435\u043b\u0430, \u044f\u043a\u0438\u0439 \u0432\u0438\u043a\u043e\u0440\u0438\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0443\u0432\u0430\u043b\u0430 \u043a\u0440\u0438\u043c\u0456\u043d\u0430\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0430 \u043e\u0440\u0433\u0430\u043d\u0456\u0437\u0430\u0446\u0456\u044f Tren [\u2026]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":207433346,"featured_media":7636,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rank_math_description":"","rank_math_title":"%title% | UkrMedia","rank_math_focus_keyword":"\u0412\u0435\u043d\u0435\u0441\u0443\u0435\u043b\u0456","td_subtitle":"","subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[805619],"tags":[805624],"class_list":{"0":"post-7635","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-world","8":"tag-805624"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7635","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/207433346"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7635"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7635\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7637,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7635\/revisions\/7637"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7636"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7635"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7635"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7635"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
