Washington deploys bombers as rift grows

Venezuela claimed on Monday to have dismantled a CIAfinanced cell plotting a false-flag attack on a US warship deployed to the southern Caribbean, as Washington stepped up pressure on Caracas by flying bombers nearby.
Venezuelan authorities said they uncovered an operation targeting the USS Gravely, a guided-missile destroyer that docked on Sunday in Trinidad and Tobago — within firing distance of the Venezuelan mainland.
The ship's arrival sparked outrage in Caracas, which called it a “provocation” and claimed it was “aimed at provoking a war in the Caribbean”.
It also deepened tensions with Trinidad and Tobago, whose Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar is a strong critic of Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro, and a supporter of US President Donald Trump's military campaign against drug traffickers in the Caribbean.
