U.S. Strikes Tren de Aragua Boss

About this episode

The episode discusses the elimination of Hector Guerrero Flores, leader of the Tren de Aragua gang, in a U.S. strike as part of a broader campaign against narcoterrorism.

Hector Guerrero Flores, the feared leader of the Tren de Aragua gang, has been eliminated in a U.S. lethal strike — a major blow to a cartel linked to terror, drug trafficking, and violence across the Americas. Charged with racketeering and terrorism in December, he was the subject of a $5 million bounty. This operation, coordinated with Venezuelan authorities, is part of Operation Souther Spear — a relentless campaign that’s already claimed over 200 lives in boat strikes since September, targeting what the U.S. calls “narcoterrorists.” Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
