U.S. Again Sends Bombers Less Than 50 Miles From Venezuela As Aircraft Carrier Approaches The Caribbean

The U.S. again flew bombers less than 50 miles from the Venezuelan coast as tensions remain high in the region and the USS Gerald Ford continues to approach.

Local outlet Monitoreamos noted that the U.S. flew two strategic B-52H Stratofortress planes identified as TITO41 and TITO42. The operation takes place a week after the U.S. sent B-1B bombers close to the country, noting they turned off transponders while flying over the Caribbean and then turned them on again as they got closer to the Venezuelan shores.
