BREAKING: President Trump announced that U.S. Southern Command conducted a strike that reportedly killed Niño Guerrero, the alleged leader of Tren de Aragua.
According to Trump's statement, the operation was coordinated with Venezuelan authorities and targeted one of the most notorious transnational criminal organizations operating across the Americas.
The announcement marks a significant escalation in the U.S. campaign against organized crime networks and follows efforts to designate Tren de Aragua as a foreign terrorist organization.
Markets may view the development primarily as a geopolitical and security event, while investors watch for any broader regional implications.
