In a covert military operation centred on Caracas on 3 January 2026, United States forces reportedly deployed an advanced Directed Energy Weapon (DEW), an unprecedented technology that has sparked intense international discussion. Eyewitnesses and local security personnel claim the raid targeted Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, though Washington has not officially confirmed the deployment or technical specifics of the weapon.

According to observers on the ground, the operation began with a sudden failure of Venezuela’s radar and surveillance systems. Multiple drones were detected overhead, creating an atmosphere of confusion and technological dominance. Shortly thereafter, just 20 US soldiers descended from helicopters and activated the mysterious energy device. Witnesses described it as emitting concentrated sonic and energy waves, far more powerful than conventional firearms, capable of immediately incapacitating security personnel.

The impact on Maduro’s security team was reported as swift and severe. Many personnel experienced nosebleeds, vomiting, intense head pressure, and even fainting. Eyewitnesses likened the sensation to their heads “about to explode,” noting that affected personnel were physically unable to resist or regain composure. This rendered a large segment of the security force effectively neutralised within minutes.

White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt shared some of these accounts on social media, triggering widespread international attention and debate. However, neither the White House nor the Pentagon has formally verified the use of a Directed Energy Weapon during the raid.

Internal Venezuelan sources suggest that approximately 100 security personnel were killed in the operation. Former US intelligence officials note that while the United States has researched laser- and microwave-based energy weapons for decades, the reported use in this raid may constitute the first operational deployment in a real combat scenario, representing a potential milestone in modern warfare.

The table below summarises the key elements of the operation:

Analysts suggest this raid has opened a new chapter in military technology, raising urgent questions about the ethics, legality, and future use of directed energy weapons in combat. Should the claims be verified, the strategic, political, and humanitarian ramifications could be profound, marking a paradigm shift in both warfare and global security dynamics.
