Man Claiming To Be Maduro Guard Makes Stunning Confession About US Raid
A purported member of Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro’s security detail is offering a chilling account of what he describes as an overwhelming and technologically unmatched U.S. military operation—one that left Venezuelan forces helpless despite their numerical advantage.
Speaking in Spanish in an interview circulated online, the man claimed American troops infiltrated Maduro’s security perimeter without detection and decimated Venezuelan fighters in a matter of minutes. According to his account, U.S. forces faced hundreds of defenders yet emerged without a single casualty.
“Those 20 men killed hundreds of their men, and none of those [American] soldiers were injured,” a man translating the Venezuelan insider said.
“It was a massacre,” the insider said, per the Daily Wire. “We were hundreds, but we had no chance. They were shooting with such precision and speed … it seemed like each soldier was firing 300 rounds per minute. We couldn’t do anything.”
The security guard attributed the imbalance not just to superior training, but to what he believes was advanced American technology deployed during the raid. He specifically referenced the use of an unfamiliar weapon that appeared to incapacitate large numbers of Venezuelan troops almost instantly.
“Suddenly I felt like my head was exploding from the inside,” he said. “We all started bleeding from the nose. Some were vomiting blood. We fell to the ground, unable to move.”
An insider from Venezuela’s security forces says US troops were like nothing they’d ever seen — overwhelming firepower, advanced tech, total dominance. After Trump’s Fox News warning on taking on the cartels, Latin America is watching how powerful US forces truly are. 🇺🇸🇻🇪”

The account has been cited by multiple figures in Washington, including White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, as a stark reminder of the capabilities of the U.S. military and a warning to hostile regimes considering confrontation with the United States.
American military officials have since released limited details about the 88-minute operation, describing it as one of the most complex and precisely executed missions ever carried out by U.S. forces, according to the Daily Wire.
“Those twenty men, without a single casualty, killed hundreds of us,” the insider continued. “We had no way to compete with their technology, with their weapons. I swear, I’ve never seen anything like it. We couldn’t even stand up after that sonic weapon or whatever it was.”
🚨This account from a Venezuelan security guard loyal to Nicolás Maduro is absolutely chilling—and it explains a lot about why the tone across Latin America suddenly changed.

Security Guard: On the day of the operation, we didn't hear anything coming. We were on guard, but… pic.twitter.com/392mQuakYV
In an extended interview, the alleged security guard described how the operation unfolded from his perspective:
Security Guard: On the day of the operation, we didn’t hear anything coming. We were on guard, but suddenly all our radar systems shut down without any explanation. The next thing we saw were drones, a lot of drones, flying over our positions. We didn’t know how to react.
Interviewer: So what happened next? How was the main attack?
Security Guard: After those drones appeared, some helicopters arrived, but there were very few. I think barely eight helicopters. From those helicopters, soldiers came down, but a very small number. Maybe twenty men. But those men were technologically very advanced. They didn’t look like anything we’ve fought against before.
Interviewer: And then the battle began?
Security Guard: Yes, but it was a massacre. We were hundreds, but we had no chance. They were shooting with such precision and speed… it seemed like each soldier was firing 300 rounds per minute. We couldn’t do anything.
Interviewer: And your own weapons? Didn’t they help?
Security Guard: No help at all. Because it wasn’t just the weapons. At one point, they launched something—I don’t know how to describe it… it was like a very intense sound wave. Suddenly I felt like my head was exploding from the inside. We all started bleeding from the nose. Some were vomiting blood. We fell to the ground, unable to move.
Interviewer: And your comrades? Did they manage to resist?
Security Guard: No, not at all. Those twenty men, without a single casualty, killed hundreds of us. We had no way to compete with their technology, with their weapons. I swear, I’ve never seen anything like it. We couldn’t even stand up after that sonic weapon or whatever it was.
Interviewer: So do you think the rest of the region should think twice before confronting the Americans?
Security Guard: Without a doubt. I’m sending a warning to anyone who thinks they can fight the United States. They have no idea what they’re capable of. After what I saw, I never want to be on the other side of that again. They’re not to be messed with.
Interviewer: And now that Trump has said Mexico is on the list, do you think the situation will change in Latin America?
Security Guard: Definitely. Everyone is already talking about this. No one wants to go through what we went through. Now everyone thinks twice. What happened here is going to change a lot of things, not just in Venezuela but throughout the region.
If accurate, the account underscores how dramatically the balance of power has shifted under President Donald J. Trump’s second term, as the administration reasserts American military dominance and signals zero tolerance for regimes that threaten U.S. interests or regional stability.
