A former security guard for Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has opened up on the raid that led to the latter’s capture on January 3.

The United States military swooped in, took out Venezuelan soldiers, and left with the dictator and his wife, who are now standing trial in New York.

Maduro has entered a plea of not guilty, claiming he is a decent man who was snatched from his

Meanwhile, his former guard has described the effects of the technology used to overcome Venezuelan troops. The soldier claims the American forces flew in undetected because they were able to shut down radar systems.

They also used cutting-edge drones and a direct energy weapon to devastating effect.

The U.S. only sent in 20 soldiers. However, they completed the mission without a single casualty while taking out hundreds.

Venezuelan Soldier Says Weapon Caused Him To Bleed From The Nose During Nicolas Maduro’s Capture

Drones were said to have struck bases at incredible speed, taking them out before Venezuela could muster a response.

The scariest part? The Americans’ direct energy weapon.

The soldier claims the weapon left everyone bleeding from the nose, and some even vomited blood.

“We all started bleeding from the nose. Some were vomiting blood. We fell to the ground, unable to move. We couldn’t even stand up after that sonic weapon or whatever it was,” he was quoted as saying.

He added that they “had no way to compete with their technology, with their weapons. I swear, I’ve never seen anything like it.”

His description seems to align with the Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) or the Active Denial System (ADS), which the U.S. is known to have developed.

The soldier also warned that it makes no sense trying to fight America, given the advanced weaponry they possess.

“You think you can fight Americans? You don’t even know what their weaponry is like,” he said, telling Mexico, “You’re on the list too.”

Of note, Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, claimed they were hurt during the raid. Flores attended court with her head bandaged last week. Bruises were also seen around her eyes.
