The Pentagon said the operation to hunt down the leader of the Tren de Aragua gang was conducted together with the Venezuelan authorities
The US has said it killed a notorious gang leader in a strike on his compound in Venezuela.
US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the operation targeting Tren de Aragua leader Hector Rusthenford Guerrero Flores, known as Nino Guerrero, was carried out earlier this week in full coordination with the Venezuelan authorities.
Hegseth said the operation “underscores the shared US and Venezuelan commitment to take the fight to narco-terrorists and deny them any safe haven in our hemisphere.”
