US President Donald Trump announced the imminent commencement of ground strikes against targets in Latin America. He said the operations may not necessarily target Venezuela, but rather individuals involved in drug smuggling.

Speaking to reporters, Trump emphasized that the goal of these actions is to disrupt drug trafficking, including the activities of cartels such as the Tren de Aragua and the Cartel de los Soles. Official details, including precise goals and timelines, have not yet been clarified, sparking concern among countries in the region.
