Venezuela Deploys Military Assets Amid US Naval Movements and Tensions

Venezuela has deployed warships and drones along its Caribbean coast amid escalating tensions with the US, which has sent additional warships and Marines to the region to combat drug trafficking. Despite the military build-up, analysts believe it is mainly posturing, and many Venezuelans see the threat as a way to pressure Maduro into negotiations. The US accuses Maduro of drug trafficking and has increased efforts to target his regime, while Venezuela has called for UN intervention to stop US military deployment.
