VENEZUELA vice-president Delcy Rodriguez has said US bombs intended for Venezuelans have fallen on "humble citizens" of Trinidad and Tobago.

In a post on Telegram on October 16, Rodriguez described the killing of six people – allegedly including two Trinidadians – on a suspected drug boat from Venezuela on October 14 was "a self-fulfilling prophecy."

Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar has expressed unwavering support for the US aggression in its battle against drug traffickers in South America, particularly in Venezuela. In a speech last month at the UN General Assembly in New York, Persad-Bissessar said it was time to fight fire with fire and the Caribbean was not a zone of peace.
