A harrowing eyewitness account from a Venezuelan guard who was on the ground when Operation Absolute Resolve hit — the mission to nab illegitimate then-president Nicolás Maduro — describes an unknown sonic weapon used by the U.S. against his security forces. According to the guard, the sonic blast caused them to experience headaches, disorientation, and vomiting of blood as they were completely incapacitated.
Now, of course, she didn’t come right out and confirm it, but for a close Trump ally to say “stop what you’re doing and read this” certainly makes you take notice. You’d have to imagine she wouldn’t do such a thing lightly.
The witness’ account describes a debilitating sonic force:

“At one point, they launched something; I don’t know how to describe it,” according to the account posted to X.
“It was like a very intense sound wave. Suddenly, I felt like my head was exploding from the inside.

“We had no way to compete with their technology, with their weapons,” he said. “I swear, I’ve never seen anything like it. We couldn’t even stand up after that sonic weapon or whatever it was.”
It wouldn’t be the first time sonic weapons have been used in the field of combat:
The military has had directed energy weapons — which neutralize targets using focused energy such as microwaves or laser beams — for years, but this could be the first time it’s been used in combat by the US, an ex-US intelligence source told The Post. China reportedly used a microwave weapon in 2020 against Indian soldiers during a border dispute in Ladakh.

“I can’t say all of those symptoms. But yes, some,” the source said. “And we’ve had versions for decades.”
We’ll have to see whether the administration confirms that a new, incredibly powerful weapon was used. In the meantime, however, dictators and drug lords in South and Central America are likely quaking in their boots. “I’m sending a warning to anyone who thinks they can fight the United States,” the witness said. “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.”
