Targeted US strikes have left several military installations damaged, with civilians left in panic and uncertainty<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>US special forces kidnapped Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife in a daring overnight operation early Saturday morning.  Senior RT correspondent Murad Gazdiev was in Caracas when the first bombs dropped, capturing exclusive footage of the city’s paralysis.<\/p>\n

In exclusive footage and reports from Caracas, Gazdiev visited the Fuerte Tiuna military base, where Maduro was seized. An RT team filmed smoke still rising from the location hours later.<\/p>\n

“This is Fuerte Tiuna,”<\/em> Gazdiev reported from the scene, adding that it was difficult to access the district due to a heavy police presence. “Initially a military base, it has grown into a district of the city with public housing. This is where Nicolas Maduro and his wife were seized in a raid by US special forces.”<\/em><\/p>\n

The RT team also visited another location in the capital, filming the visible aftermath of the assault.<\/p>\n

“This is one of the armored personnel carriers destroyed in the night strikes on Venezuela,”<\/em> Gazdiev reported. “You can see downed power lines, multiple destroyed buses, and a gutted armored personnel carrier still burning, 12 hours after the strike.”<\/em><\/p>\n

The US operation, dubbed Absolute Resolve, which President Donald Trump has openly called a “regime-change”<\/em> mission, has led to widespread confusion among civilians. Gazdiev reported that much of Caracas has shut down, with businesses closed, work suspended, and essential supplies becoming increasingly scarce.<\/p>\n

“Nobody understands how long this is going to last… this panic, this fear,”<\/em> he stated, noting that nearly all shops and supermarkets in the capital are closed.<\/p>\n

Gazdiev filmed one of the few pharmacies still operating, where a long queue had formed. “They are clearing everything off the shelves – water, medicine, toilet paper, everything that’s left,”<\/em> he reported. “A police officer is on duty at the entrance to prevent looting.”<\/em><\/p>\n
