The witness in the interview claims to be a guard who was serving at the Caracas military base where the U.S. captured Maduro.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We were on guard, but suddenly all our radar systems shut down without any explanation,&#8217; the witness said. &#8216;The next thing we saw were drones, a lot of drones, flying over our positions. We didn\u2019t know how to react.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The witness then described watching roughly 20 U.S. soldiers deploy out of roughly eight helicopters over the base.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;They were technologically very advanced,&#8217; the guard said. &#8216;They didn\u2019t look like anything we\u2019ve fought against before.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We were hundreds, but we had no chance,&#8217; he said. &#8216;They were shooting with such precision and speed; it felt like each soldier was firing 300 rounds per minute.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The witness then describes the U.S. deploying some sort of sonic weapon against Venezuelan forces.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;At one point, they launched something; I don\u2019t know how to describe it,&#8217; he said. &#8216;It was like a very intense sound wave. Suddenly I felt like my head was exploding from the inside.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We all started bleeding from the nose,&#8217; he added. &#8216;Some were vomiting blood. We fell to the ground, unable to move. We couldn\u2019t even stand up after that sonic weapon \u2014 or whatever it was.&#8217;<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-media fn-video\">\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<div data-video-tags=\"world|conflicts,topics|venezuelan_political_crisis,us|military\" data-video-title=\"US military carries out strikes in Venezuela\" data-video-id=\"6387182833112\" data-video-domain=\"foxnews\" data-video-type=\"CLIP\" data-widget-type=\"embed\" class=\"m video-player\" style=\"width: 100%;height: 100%\"> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8216;Those twenty men, without a single casualty, killed hundreds of us,&#8217; the witness claimed. &#8216;We had no way to compete with their technology, with their weapons.
