Since last Sunday, May 3, the security forces have been deployed in search of all the terrorists involved in this paramilitary operation, in which the governments of Colombia and the United States (USA) are linked, and which would have been led by a private US “security” firm, Silvercorp, hired by Juan Guaidó under a contract that has come to light.
So far, more than 30 have been captured for these events.

Earlier this Sunday, three other mercenaries were captured in La Colonia Tovar, Aragua state.
On March 26, Alcalá Cordones confirmed the existence of three camps in Colombia where paramilitaries were being trained to attack the country and selectively assassinate senior Venezuelan officials, including the head of state.
