Health centers in Venezuela claim that the dead and injured from the U.S. attack are military personnel

The main health centers in Caracas and other regions of Venezuela confirmed this Friday that the reported fatalities and injuries following the military attack by Estados Unidos exclusively involve military personnel, with no records of civilian casualties.

According to a report released by a national network of doctors and confirmed by local journalists, as of 2:00 p.m. on January 3rd, there have been no reports of civilian admissions in the public or private hospitals of the country.

The medical report indicates that the focus of attention was on the military health centers in the capital, where most of the injured personnel from the initial bombings were transferred.

Among the hospitals with the highest activity are:

• Carlos Arvelo Military Hospital: more than 60 soldiers injured and an uncounted number of fatalities.
• Hospitalito de Fuerte Tiuna: more than 30 injured personnel and several deceased individuals undergoing identification.
• Pérez de León Hospital: one injury reported, the only case in a civil center in the capital.

Despite the reported explosions in Caracas, La Guaira, and Miranda, the main civilian hospitals —such as Universitario de Caracas, Magallanes de Catia, Domingo Luciani, Hospital Vargas, and Victorino Santaella— stated that they have not received any injured or deceased related to the operation.

The same happens at the private clinic Rescarven in La Carlota, where no admissions are reported.

In the rest of the country, the states of Bolívar, Aragua, and Mérida maintain complete normalcy in their hospital networks, with no incidents related to the attack, according to the medical reports released.

However, the regime's Minister of Defense, Vladimir Padrino López, offered a different version through state media, claiming that the U.S. offensive "targeted civilian objectives" and describing the events as "a direct aggression against the Venezuelan population."

“The attack was an act of imperial barbarism. Our defense systems acted to protect human lives, but there were damages to civilian infrastructure,” declared Padrino, who called for a general mobilization of the Armed Forces and the citizenry “to defend the homeland.”

The official urged the public to "remain calm and trust the political-military high command," while accusing the United States of "seeking to instill panic." However, as of the close of this edition, there is no verified evidence of civilian casualties or damage to residential areas.

The U.S. attack was part of the operation that led to the capture of Nicolás Maduro, who faces charges of narco-terrorism and criminal conspiracy before U.S. justice. The military action, carried out precisely and without U.S. casualties, was confirmed by President Donald Trump from Mar-a-Lago.
