Details of the Sonic Weapon Used
Trump’s remarks came in response to a question about the weapon’s potential dangers.

While the specifics of the sonic weapon remain vague, it has been rumored to incapacitate targets with intense sound waves.
Effects on Venezuelan Soldiers
During the raid, which took place on January 3, reports indicated severe physical reactions among Venezuelan soldiers. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt mentioned that soldiers experienced symptoms such as bleeding from the nose and vomiting. Eyewitness accounts describe the sonic weapon as creating an “intense sound wave” that left soldiers unable to stand.
International Reactions and Concerns

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov confirmed that Russian intelligence services are investigating Trump’s claims. International scrutiny has heightened, with many questioning the legality of the operation to capture Maduro.
Casualties and Legal Implications

- Questions linger over whether these casualties were linked to the sonic weapon itself.
- Legal experts have raised concerns about the legality of the U.S. actions, labeling them as “illegal and criminal.”
Trump’s Continued Allegations Against Maduro
Trump has been vocal in his accusations against Maduro, claiming he has been involved in drug trafficking to the U.S. However, he has yet to provide substantive proof to support these allegations. Following the raid, Trump stated that Venezuela’s oil fields would play a pivotal role in future U.S. investments, predicting that the country could become more prosperous.
Conclusion
