After the arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, the inside story of US military action is now coming to light. America named this mission Operation Absolute-Resolve (OAR), which was carried out in a very confidential manner. This operation started on Friday night and was completed by early Saturday morning. The US Army, Delta Force, CIA, Navy and FBI worked together in this entire mission.
Operation started in the dark of night
According to local time, America started the operation around 2 am on Friday night and Saturday morning. First of all, air strikes were carried out on many Venezuelan targets, so that the country’s air defense system could be weakened. Its purpose was that Delta Force helicopters could reach Maduro without any hindrance.
Fuerte Tiuna became the center of operations
Fuerte Tiuna, a large military base in Caracas, was the main target of this operation. American intelligence agencies had received information that Nicholas Maduro was present here. After the air strikes, US Special Forces entered the area and Maduro was taken into custody from his compound.
Complete mission in 2 hours 28 minutes
According to local time, at 2:01 am, American Delta Force had reached Maduro’s hideout. After this, Maduro was taken to the beach in just 2 hours and 28 minutes. At 4:29 am, Delta Force completed the operation and left the area.
Maduro taken out of the country on USS Iwo Jima
The American warship USS Iwo Jima was already deployed about 100 miles away from the Venezuelan coast. At around 11 am in the morning, Maduro was taken out of Venezuela through this warship. Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores were first taken to the Guantanamo naval base. A special Boeing 757 government plane of FBI was already ready there. Both of them were brought to New York by this plane. After landing at New York’s Stewart Airport, Maduro was taken straight to the DEA headquarters. After this, both were shifted to Brooklyn Detention Center by helicopter and then by car.
Big role of CIA, internal network ready
The role of CIA was very important in this operation. The CIA had prepared its sources within the Venezuelan government and among people close to Maduro. Through these sources, Maduro’s every activity was being monitored – where he goes, whom he meets, where he stays and where he sleeps.
Maduro’s security and routine monitored
The CIA had also completely studied Maduro’s security system. At what time, how much security is there, who are the most trusted guards and where Maduro goes in case of danger – all these things were collected. Stealth drones were also used to monitor Maduro.
CIA officers were present on the ground since August
According to American media reports, senior CIA officials were present in Venezuela since August. He was continuously working on Maduro’s daily habits and movements i.e. ‘pattern of life’. As soon as the correct location was confirmed, the operation was given the green signal.
Maduro under control in five minutes
It is being told that American Delta Force captured Maduro in just five minutes. Maduro and his wife were trying to run towards a safe house after seeing American soldiers, but they did not get a chance to escape. American media claims that Delta Force had properly rehearsed this mission a month in advance, so that there was no mistake in the operation.
Trump watched the operation live from Florida
When this entire operation was going on, US President Donald Trump was present in Florida. From there he was keeping an eye on the entire mission through live feed. The US Defense Minister and CIA Director were also present with him. This operation is considered to be one of America’s most high-profile foreign military actions ever.
