The Trump administration has spent at least $4.7 billion on military operations targeting Venezuela and conducting deadly strikes on civilian boats in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific.
These actions, which include attempts to capture Venezuela's president and attacks resulting in over 180 deaths, have sparked outrage among human rights groups. More than 120 organizations are demanding an end to third-country complicity, urging nations to deny the US access to bases and intelligence. Critics highlight the contrast between massive military spending and domestic crises like healthcare shortages.
The US State Department has also reportedly pressured human rights watchdogs to ignore these controversial operations.
