At the White House, Donald Trump used an expletive to warn Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro, claiming the leader had offered “everything” — including natural resources — to ease tensions. Speaking alongside Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Trump confirmed a sixth US strike on a suspected drug vessel in the Caribbean, saying “we attacked a submarine,” after earlier strikes near Venezuela killed at least 27 people. Secretary of state Marco Rubio said details would follow. Caracas condemned the actions as illegal killings, while Human Rights Watch and legal scholars warned they violate international law. Lawmakers from both parties voiced unease over the operations.
