Venezuela announced Wednesday the arrival of 185 nationals deported from the United States on a flight from Texas, even as tensions between Caracas and Washington intensify over U.S. military operations in the Caribbean and Nicolas Maduro claimed earlier in the week the relations between both countries to be "completely broken"
The Ministry of Interior, Justice and Peace confirmed that the group, which landed at Maiquetía International Airport outside Caracas, included 164 men, 16 women, and five children. Officials said the passengers were received under the government's "Gran Misión Vuelta a la Patria" program, which facilitates the return of Venezuelans deported from abroad.
