US President Donald Trump has warned that Venezuelan jets flying over American naval vessels could be shot down, following two reported incidents of Venezuelan aircraft approaching US ships near South America.
The warning comes days after a US strike on a Venezuelan boat alleged to be carrying drugs killed 11 people, an operation Venezuela denies.
President Nicolás Maduro rejected US allegations of drug trafficking and called for dialogue, insisting disputes should not lead to military conflict.
Trump, who has intensified anti-drug-trafficking operations since returning to office in January, said Venezuela would be in “trouble” if the situation escalated.
The US has deployed additional naval forces, marines, and 10 F-35 jets to the region, while Trump has doubled the reward for Maduro’s arrest to $50 million, accusing him of being a leading narco-trafficker.
