The leader of the Aragua Train gang, Niño Guerrero, has been killed in a recent operation. The U.S. government described the action as a “rapid and lethal kinetic strike.” Washington had previously designated the Aragua Train as a foreign terrorist organization early in the current administration. Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez’s government has commented on the death, though details of their statement were not provided in the source text. The Aragua Train is a notorious criminal organization operating in Venezuela and neighboring countries. Guerrero’s death represents a significant development in efforts to dismantle the gang’s operations. Further information regarding the specifics of the operation and the Venezuelan government’s response is pending.
