The US navy has been accused of killing 17 civilians in deadly strikes, leading to heightened tensions between the United States and Venezuela. The incident took place last night in the waters off the coast of Venezuela. The US navy claims that the strikes were targeting a group of armed militants who were posing a threat to their naval vessel. However, according to Venezuelan officials, the victims were innocent civilians who were fishing in the area.
The Venezuelan government has condemned the attacks, calling them a flagrant violation of their sovereignty. In response to the incident, Venezuela has announced that it will be providing guns to civilians in order to defend themselves against potential further attacks. The move has raised concerns about the escalation of violence in the region.
The United States has not yet issued an official statement regarding the incident. However, sources within the US navy have indicated that they are conducting an internal investigation to determine the circumstances that led to the civilian casualties.
The deadly strikes have further strained the already tense relations between the US and Venezuela. The two countries have been at odds over various political and economic issues in recent years, and this latest incident is likely to exacerbate the situation.
Both sides are calling for a thorough and impartial investigation into the matter to determine the truth behind the deadly strikes and to prevent such incidents from happening again in the future. The international community is closely monitoring the situation and urging both parties to exercise restraint to avoid further escalation of hostilities.
