U.S. forces in the Caribbean Sea have seized another sanctioned oil tanker the Trump administration says has ties to Venezuela. It's part of a broader U.S. effort to take control of the South American country's oil. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Thursday the tanker named Veronica had previously passed through Venezuelan waters and was operating in defiance of President Donald Trump's "established quarantine of sanctioned vessels in the Caribbean." The Veronica is the sixth sanctioned vessel seized by U.S. forces as part of Trump's effort. A video Noem posted online shows helicopters hovering over the deck of a ship while armed troops drop down on the deck by rope.
The U.S. military says U.S. forces have boarded another oil tanker in the Caribbean Sea as the Trump administration continues to target sanctioned tankers traveling to and from Venezuela. The predawn action was carried out by Marines and Navy sailors launched from an aircraft carrier that is part of the extensive force the U.S. has built up in the Caribbean. That's according to U.S. Southern Command, which declared "there is no safe haven for criminals" as it announced the seizure of the vessel called the Olina on Friday. The Olina is the fifth tanker seized by U.S. forces as part of a broader effort by President Donald Trump's administration to control the production and global distribution of Venezuela's oil products.
