US intercepts oil tanker off Venezuelan coast, officials say
The U.S. intercepted an oil tanker off Venezuela's coast, confirming a "blockade" of sanctioned vessels. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem stated the U.S. will pursue illicit oil funding narco-terrorism. Venezuela denounced the act as "international piracy" and plans to report it to the UN Security Council.
