Former U.S. President Donald Trump announced that U.S. military forces successfully eliminated Hector Rusthenford Guerrero Flores, who is known by the alias “Nino Guerrero.” Trump stated via his Truth Social platform that the operation was conducted with his authorization and involved coordination with Venezuelan authorities.
He characterized the targeted individual as the head of what he described as one of the world’s most violent criminal organizations. This announcement was corroborated by U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, who confirmed that Guerrero was killed earlier in the week.
Venezuelan authorities provided context regarding the operation, noting that it was executed through the exchange of intelligence and the provision of specialized technological support. The targeted figure, identified as the leader of the criminal group Tren de Aragua, had been designated as one of the most wanted criminals across Latin America. The actions detailed by Trump suggest a multinational effort to neutralize high-level criminal threats.
The official statements from both U.S. and Venezuelan sources underscore a collaborative intelligence effort aimed at dismantling the infrastructure of the Tren de Aragua network.
