Venezuela Says 100 Killed in U.S. Attack That Ousted Maduro. Venezuela’s interior minister Diosdado Cabello said 100 people were killed during the U.S. operation that removed President Nicolás Maduro from power on Saturday. It is the first official death toll given by Caracas since the raid, which has drawn international scrutiny and condemnation from some allies. The Venezuelan military has so far released the names of 23 soldiers it says were killed during the attack. Officials claim much of Maduro’s security detail was killed “in cold blood” during the operation. Cuba has said 32 of its military and intelligence personnel stationed in Venezuela were also killed. Cabello said Maduro’s wife, Cilia Flores, suffered a head injury during the raid, while Maduro was injured in the leg. Both were detained alongside each other during the U.S. operation. Interim President Delcy Rodríguez declared a week of national mourning for fallen military personnel. Cabello praised Rodríguez as “courageous” during his weekly appearance on state television.
