Claims that U.S. forces deployed a powerful, previously unseen “sonic weapon” during the raid that captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro are spreading rapidly after a dramatic eyewitness account described Venezuelan security forces being incapacitated by what appeared to be a mysterious wave of sound or energy.
The eyewitness report received a major boost of authenticity after the post was shared on X by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.
“Stop what you are doing and read this,” Leavitt wrote.
The account details how Venezuelan defenders were overwhelmed within minutes during the January 3 operation.
“We were on guard, but suddenly all our radar systems shut down without any explanation,” the guard said.
“The next thing we saw were drones, a lot of drones, flying over our positions.
“We didn’t know how to react.”
According to the account, later reported by the New York Post, only a small U.S. unit entered the area, “barely eight” helicopters deploying roughly 20 troops, yet they quickly seized control of the battlefield.
“They were technologically very advanced,” the guard said.
“They didn’t look like anything we’ve fought against before.”
“My Head Was Exploding from the Inside”
The witness described the encounter as completely one-sided, claiming Venezuelan forces were outmatched despite their numerical advantage.
“We were hundreds, but we had no chance,” he said.
“They were shooting with such precision and speed; it felt like each soldier was firing 300 rounds per minute.”
The most disturbing claim came next.
“At one point, they launched something; I don’t know how to describe it,” the guard said.
“It was like a very intense sound wave.
“Suddenly, I felt like my head was exploding from the inside.”
He alleged the physical effects were immediate and widespread.
“We all started bleeding from the nose,” they revealed.
“Some were vomiting blood.
“We fell to the ground, unable to move.
