🚉U.S. SEIZES MASSIVE OIL TANKER OFF VENEZUELA

🚨 BREAKING: U.S. SEIZES MASSIVE OIL TANKER OFF VENEZUELA

President Donald Trump confirmed that U.S. forces have seized what he called “the largest tanker ever taken,” off the coast of Venezuela.

The vessel, identified as the Skipper, is a Guyana-flagged VLCC secretly loaded with 1.1 million barrels of crude. It was reportedly headed toward Cuba after taking on oil from Venezuela and Iran — both under heavy U.S. sanctions.

Federal agencies including the FBI, DHS, and the U.S. Coast Guard, backed by the Pentagon, executed the seizure. Footage shared by Attorney General Pam Bondi shows soldiers boarding the ship by helicopter.

The tanker has long been sanctioned for involvement in an illicit oil-shipping network tied to foreign terrorist organizations, according to U.S. officials.

This move comes as Trump ramps up pressure on Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, saying this week that “Maduro’s days are numbered” and refusing to rule out further action.

Oil markets reacted immediately:

🛢️ WTI up +1.2% to $58.95

🛢️ Brent up +1.15% to $62.65

Analysts warn this seizure will make shippers far more cautious about moving Venezuelan crude — potentially reshaping regional oil flows.
