Yes. Multiple credible reports confirm that Venezuelan civilians and security personnel were killed in the recent U.S. attack on Venezuela.

What happened

  • The U.S. launched a large-scale air operation against targets in northern Venezuela and around Caracas as part of an operation that captured President NicolĂĄs Maduro.
  • Venezuelan officials stated that both soldiers and civilians were killed in these strikes.

Reported casualty figures

  • A Venezuelan official cited by The New York Times initially said at least 40 people were killed, including civilians and military personnel; this was later revised to at least 80 dead, combining civilians and security forces.
  • Venezuelan Vice President Delcy RodrĂ­guez publicly condemned the attack, saying it “cost the lives of officials, soldiers, innocent people and civilians,” without giving a precise number.

Examples of civilian deaths

  • In Catia La Mar, an airstrike hit a three‑story apartment building, killing one civilian woman and seriously injuring another, while heavily damaging the structure.
  • Residents described rushing the wounded to a hospital, where one was pronounced dead on arrival and another remained in critical condition.

What is still unclear

  • Exact, independently verified totals remain uncertain, as Venezuelan authorities said investigations into fatalities and injuries were still ongoing.
  • U.S. officials have emphasized that no American service members were killed, though some were injured, and have not provided detailed Venezuelan casualty counts.
