Sonic weapons claimed in Venezuela Maduro capture operation by witness

A viral story from a man who claims to have witnessed the US operation to capture Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro states that the US used sonic weapons during the mission to incapacitate opposing forces.

White House Press Secretary Carolyn Leavitt shared the eyewitness interview on Channel X and encouraged her followers to read the statement. The witness claims in the interview that he is a guard who was serving at the Caracas military base where the United States arrested Maduro.

The witness said: “We were on alert, but suddenly all our radar systems stopped without any explanation.” “The next thing we saw were drones, lots of drones, flying over our positions. We didn’t know how to respond.”

The witness then described how he watched approximately 20 U.S. soldiers deploy from about eight helicopters over the base.

“They were very advanced technologically,” the guard said. “They didn’t look like anything we’d fought against before.”

He said: “There were hundreds of us, but we did not have the opportunity.” “They were firing with great accuracy and speed, and it seemed as if each soldier was firing 300 rounds per minute.”

The witness then describes the United States deploying a type of sonic weapon against Venezuelan forces.

“At some point, they released something, I don’t know how to describe it,” he added. “It was like a very intense sound wave. Suddenly it felt like my head was exploding from the inside.”

He added: “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.”

The witness claimed, “These twenty men, without a single casualty, killed hundreds of us.” “We had no way to compete with their technology, with their weapons. I swear I’ve never seen anything like it before.”
