📰 NEWS | CIA Claimed to Have Launched Strike on ‘Remote Dock’ on Venezuelan Coast CNN and the New York Times report that the CIA allegedly carried out a drone strike on a “remote dock” along Venezuela’s coast earlier this month, targeting what US officials claim was a drug trafficking facility. US President Donald Trump later referred to the incident during a Monday press conference, saying US forces destroyed a dock facility along the country’s shoreline. The CIA, the White House, and the Pentagon have declined to comment on the reported operation, despite President Trump’s remarks.
