US sonic weapon left Venezuelan troops helpless in Maduro raid, Karoline Leavitt shared post claims

WASHINGTON, DC: Karoline Leavitt reshared a post on her X account on Saturday, January 10, while urging the American people to stop what they were doing to pay attention to it.

The post that the White House press secretary shared contained a witness account from a Venezuelan security guard as he recounted the night America struck the country and captured former leader Nicolas Maduro.

The guard alleged that the US used a powerful sonic weapon that brought soldiers to their knees and left them bleeding through their noses and vomiting blood. 

Nicolas Maduro's guard terms the US strike a 'massacre'

While recounting the January 3 attack on Venezuela and the capture of President Nicolas Maduro, the security guard who was loyal to Maduro said that they were unaware of an upcoming attack and were taken by surprise.

He noted that they didn’t hear anything until their radar systems went down inexplicably, after which they saw a lot of drones flying overhead. The helicopters came soon after, according to the guard, and he revealed that there were “barely eight” helicopters carrying soldiers.

He recalled around 20 men carrying weapons of advanced technology, stating that they didn’t look like anything they had encountered before.

While speaking of the main attack itself, the guard termed it a “massacre,” noting that although the Venezuelans were more in numbers, they didn’t stand a chance.

“They were shooting with such precision and speed. It seemed like each soldier was firing 300 rounds per minute. We couldn’t do anything,” he added. 

The guard added that the American soldiers launched something that emitted a “very intense sound wave.”

“Suddenly, I felt like my head was exploding from the inside,” he recalled.  

Nicolas Maduro's guard warns Trump's foes of US power

The post that was reshared by the White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was originally posted by Mike Netter, who wrote that the witness account belonged to one of Maduro’s loyal guards.

After explaining what had happened in Venezuela, the guard commented on Donald Trump’s recent warning to different countries like Mexico and Cuba.

He said that everyone was talking about the US military strike, noting that nobody wanted to go through what the Venezuelan people experienced.

“Now everyone thinks twice. What happened here is going to change a lot of things, not just in Venezuela but throughout the region,” he added.

When asked if the rest of Latin America should reconsider confronting the United States of America, the security guard said, “Without a doubt.” He added that he wanted to warn anyone who thought they could take on America.

“They have no idea what they’re capable of. After what I saw, I never want to be on the other side of that again. They’re not to be messed with,” he stated.
