Abstract

On May 3rd (2019) a bunch of mercenaries, led by Rambo-like US soldiers of fortune attempted to disembark on the coastal town of Macuto in the La Guaira state in Venezuela's Caribbean coast, in a so-called Operattion Gedeon. Though the operation failed, irrefutable evidence shows the plot had terrifying sinister aims.
