Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, both suffered injuries during the raid, said Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello. On a program of a state television, Cabello paid tribute to President Maduro and his wife, as well as those who died in the U.S. military operation.
He also condemned the U.S. military attack on the South American nation as barbaric and despicable, harming a large number of innocent people. The minister described the attack as inhuman and said it was a truth that could not be concealed.
Maduro and his wife were kidnapped in a large-scale U.S. military operation against Venezuela early Saturday and flown to New York.
