As an immediate response, the Venezuelan government decreed a state of external commotion throughout the national territory, a constitutional figure that allows the application of exceptional security measures, including restrictions on mobility and strengthening of internal control.

Following the measure, the streets look practically deserted, while most businesses remain closed. Likewise, severe disruptions in communications are reported, with failures in internet and telephone service in various areas of the country.

Telecommunications providers have reported difficulties in restoring services, while power outages persist in several regions, which limits access to confirmed information and raises public concern. As of the closing of this edition, official victim figures have not been disclosed, nor have detailed pronouncements been made by the governments of Venezuela or the United States. In the international arena, organizations such as the Organization of American States (OAS) and the United Nations (UN) are closely monitoring developments and have reiterated calls for containment, the protection of civilians, and dialogue as a way to avoid further escalation of the conflict.
