The US Secretary of Homeland Security, Christie Noem, confirmed the detention of a second tanker flying the Russian flag in the waters of the Caribbean Sea. EADaily reported earlier about the events with the Mariner ship and the landing party that landed on it.
The US military landed on the second tanker from a Black Hawk helicopter, after which they knocked out the door to the captain's cabin with a pump-action shotgun.
"Both vessels — the motor tanker Bella I (Marinera) and the motor tanker Sofia — were either last in Venezuela, or were on their way there. "World criminals" have been warned. You can run, but you can't hide," Noem said.
US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, in a comment on the seizure of the Mariners, linked the events to the blockade by Washington of the mined in Venezuela's oil.
"The blockade of sanctioned and illegal Venezuelan oil remains in force anywhere in the world," Hegseth said.
EADaily previously informed — "That is, how?" or how the Russian Foreign Ministry responded to the "bloodlessness" of the operation with Maduro.
