B-52 bombers fly off coast of Venezuela in show of force by Trump
The U.S. has deployed about 10,000 troops and conducted multiple airstrikes targeting drug trafficking in the Caribbean to pressure Venezuelan President Maduro, officials said.
- On Tuesday, U.S. Air Force B-52 Stratofortress bombers flew extended patterns over the southern Caribbean, with at least two operating in the Maiquetía flight information region.

- Three aircraft — call signs BUNNY01, BUNNY02 and BUNNY03 — were tracked departing from Louisiana's Barksdale Air Force Base on U.S. Air Force Bomber Task Force deployments over the southern Caribbean.
- Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro declared the country at "maximum preparedness," mobilizing 25,000 troops and militia while Caracas condemned the U.S. buildup and called on the United Nations to intervene.
