Скачать или смотреть US Military Aircraft Deploy to Former Puerto Rico Base as Tensions Rise With Venezuela

U.S. military aircraft were seen on Wednesday (November 26) at the former Roosevelt Roads naval base in Ceiba, Puerto Rico, in what appeared to be a show of force as Washington prepares for a new phase of Venezuela-related operations, according to four U.S. officials.

Footage from the base showed a U.S. marine corps ch-53e super stallions parked behind an F-35B fighter jets, while other F-35Bs were seen taxiing and preparing for takeoff. Various marine corps ospreys also landed at the facility, which has become a hub for recent deployments in the Caribbean.

On Monday (November 24), the United States’ top military officer and U.S. President Donald Trump’s military adviser, Dan Caine, traveled to Puerto Rico as Washington continues one of its largest naval deployments in the Caribbean in decades, escalating tensions with Venezuela over alleged anti-drug operations. Caine also met with troops stationed in Puerto Rico and aboard a Navy warship in regional waters.

Reuters has not confirmed the timing or scope of the planned operations, nor whether President Donald Trump has authorized any action. Reports of possible moves have intensified in recent weeks as the U.S. military positions assets closer to Venezuela amid deteriorating relations with President Nicolás Maduro’s government.
