US Designates Venezuelan Cartel as Terrorist Group

U.S. designates Venezuelan drug cartel as foreign terrorist organization, linked to President Maduro. The Cartel de los Soles, allegedly led by Maduro, is accused of collaborating with another Venezuelan gang to send illegal drugs into the U.S. The designation, effective Monday, opens up new options for the U.S., including targeting Maduros assets or infrastructure. U.S. forces have conducted strikes on alleged drug boats, resulting in fatalities, and have doubled the reward for Maduros arrest to $50 million. The Daily News Now! - Every city. Every story.
