A US military strike killed the leader of the Tren de Aragua gang in Venezuela, according to President Trump. The strike was carried out in coordination with the Venezuelan government.

Only right-leaning sources have covered the details of the strike, with the Washington Examiner and RedState emphasizing the US role in the operation. The New York Post and NPR reported the event, with NPR using the full name of the gang leader, Hector Rusthenford Guerrero Flores, while other sources used the nickname Niño Guerrero.

The coverage lacks context on the implications of the strike for US-Venezuela relations and the potential impact on the gang's activities. None of the outlets provided independent confirmation of the strike or its details beyond President Trump's announcement.
