US EditionWhite House Weighs Leaflet Drop Advertising Maduro Bounty
The White House plans a leaflet drop offering a $50 million reward for information on Nicolás Maduro’s arrest to increase pressure amid ongoing covert and military operations.
- This past week U.S. officials told Reuters the United States government is poised to launch a new phase of Venezuela-related operations in the coming days, but Reuters could not confirm if President Donald Trump made a final decision.
- The administration has argued the measures respond to Maduro's alleged drug role and says it is weighing options, while U.S. officials say the Cartel de los Soles will be designated Monday.
- Two U.S. officials said covert operations would likely begin the campaign, while the Gerald R. Ford carrier strike group arrived November 16 with at least seven other warships, a nuclear submarine and F-35 aircraft.
- On Friday the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration warned major airlines of a "potentially hazardous situation" over Venezuela, and three international airlines canceled flights on Saturday; U.S. troops have carried out at least 21 strikes killing at least 83 people, with human rights groups condemning the actions.
- Venezuela's armed forces are debilitated by shortages and low wages, forcing some unit commanders to negotiate with local producers while Maduro's government plans `prolonged resistance` involving small military units at more than 280 locations.
