US military forces conducted a targeted operation in Venezuela on January 3, 2026, capturing President Nicolás Maduro and his wife during strikes on infrastructure around Caracas under Operation Absolute Resolve, after months of naval buildup and counter-narcotics actions. Since then, interim President Delcy Rodríguez has led the government, diplomatic relations with the US have been restored, and US Southern Command has maintained regional naval and air presence focused on drug interdiction, including recent strikes on alleged trafficking vessels and a June 2026 operation against a Tren de Aragua leader inside Venezuela. A May 2026 US military drill involving aircraft and vessels near Caracas occurred with Venezuelan authorization amid ongoing stabilization efforts. Trader assessments of another entry by specific dates hinge on whether counter-narcotics pressure, gang enforcement, or transition disputes escalate into new deployments before normalization solidifies.
