美国总统特朗普周五宣布，美军已击毙据称以委内瑞拉为基地的阿拉瓜贩毒集团（Tren de Aragua）头目。
特朗普在真相社交平台（Truth Social）上表示，美国南方司令部实施了一次“迅速且致命的动能打击”，成功击毙赫克托·罗斯瑟福德·格雷罗·弗洛雷斯（Hector Rusthenford Guerrero Flores），又名“小孩格雷罗”（Niño Guerrero）。总统称，此次任务与委内瑞拉政府“密切协调”，凸显出自今年早些时候美国军事行动推翻委内瑞拉前领导人以来，美委关系发生的转变。
美国国防部长皮特·赫格斯思（Pete Hegseth）在X平台上表示，此次打击于本周早些时候在委内瑞拉一处阿拉瓜贩毒集团据点实施。
委内瑞拉通信部在一份声明中证实，格雷罗·弗洛雷斯在美军与委内瑞拉安全部队针对该国玻利瓦尔州有组织犯罪的“联合行动”中被击毙。
特朗普的社交媒体帖文附带一段视频，显示一枚 projectile击中一栋建筑，引发大火。
他写道：“阿拉瓜贩毒集团恐怖分子再也不能在委内瑞拉或其他任何地方拥有避风港，在我的领导下，我们将随时随地找到这些恶毒的谋杀犯和毒枭，并将他们送入他们应去的地狱深渊。”

美国南方司令部在一份关于此次打击的声明中称，43岁的格雷罗·弗洛雷斯是一名“通缉在逃犯”。他于去年年底在纽约联邦法院被起诉，罪名包括敲诈勒索、共谋为恐怖分子提供物质支持以及可卡因共谋罪。美国国务院曾悬赏最高500万美元征集有助于抓获他的线索。
联邦检察官表示，格雷罗·弗洛雷斯又名“令人发指者”或“大眉毛”，执掌阿拉瓜贩毒集团超过十年，将其从一个委内瑞拉监狱帮派发展为跨国犯罪组织，势力遍及美洲多地，包括美国。起诉书中指控他领导一个犯罪企业，从事毒品和人口贩运、勒索当地民众以及实施暴力行为。

检察官称，格雷罗·弗洛雷斯最初在托科龙监狱（Tocorón Prison）运营阿拉瓜贩毒集团，指挥外部帮派成员并从他们的活动中收取费用。哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的合作媒体英国广播公司新闻报道称，格雷罗·弗洛雷斯多年来多次进出托科龙监狱：他于2012年越狱，一年后再次被捕。2018年，他被判处17年监禁，但2023年再次越狱，此后一直在逃。
英国广播公司新闻报道称，格雷罗·弗洛雷斯在监狱服刑期间一度“过得像国王”。他占据了一整层由保镖监控的区域，监狱内还有游泳池、动物园和夜总会。去年的起诉书指控委内瑞拉政府允许他“控制监狱的日常运营”。
美国与委内瑞拉政府此次疑似合作击毙格雷罗·弗洛雷斯，距美国军方在一次大胆的夜间突袭中推翻委内瑞拉总统尼古拉斯·马杜罗（Nicolás Maduro）仅五个月。
马杜罗被空运至纽约，联邦检察官指控他密谋将可卡因走私到美国，其中据称通过与阿拉瓜贩毒集团和其他卡特尔组织合作。针对马杜罗的起诉书中还将格雷罗·弗洛雷斯列为同谋。马杜罗已提出无罪抗辩。
自那以后，委内瑞拉由马杜罗的前副手德尔西·罗德里格斯（Delcy Rodriguez）领导。特朗普政府寻求与罗德里格斯政府合作，解除对她的制裁，并推动在石油开采方面开展合作。
自特朗普去年重返白宫以来，阿拉瓜贩毒集团一直是他的打击目标。他在2024年竞选期间频繁提及该帮派在美国境内的暴力活动——批评人士称，他夸大了该帮派在一些美国社区的势力——并因此赢得连任。特朗普辩称，该帮派的壮大得益于拜登政府时期大量委内瑞拉国民经美墨边境进入美国，当时马杜罗领导的委内瑞拉正陷入政治和经济动荡。
去年年初，特朗普政府将阿拉瓜贩毒集团和其他拉美帮派列为外国恐怖组织。拜登政府去年秋天曾援引这些认定作为打击加勒比海和东太平洋数十艘疑似运毒船只的法律依据，辩称美国与这些组织处于“武装冲突”状态。其中一些船只据称由阿拉瓜贩毒集团运营。
2025年3月，美国政府还援引1798年《战时敌侨法案》针对阿拉瓜贩毒集团，指控该组织与马杜罗政府合谋“入侵”美国。政府借此法律快速驱逐数百名委内瑞拉男性，其中许多人被送往萨尔瓦多的一所最高安全级监狱，这一做法引发争议。一些被驱逐者否认自己是帮派成员，一些法官认定这些人被剥夺了正当法律程序。
美国国家情报委员会去年的一份评估发现，尽管特朗普政府声称如此，但委内瑞拉政府并未指挥阿拉瓜贩毒集团。美国国务卿马可·卢比奥（Marco Rubio）在接受《与玛格丽特·布伦南面对全国》节目采访时谈及这份评估称：“他们错了。”

Trump says U.S. killed Tren de Aragua leader in airstrike in Venezuela
June 12, 2026 / 11:36 PM EDT / CBS News
The U.S. military has killed the alleged leader of Venezuela-based gang Tren de Aragua, President Trump announced Friday.
The president said on Truth Social that U.S. Southern Command carried out a “swift and lethal kinetic strike” to “successfully execute” Hector Rusthenford Guerrero Flores, also known as Niño Guerrero. The mission was “closely coordinated” with the Venezuelan government, the president said, highligting the U.S.’s shifting relationship with Venezuela since its former leader was removed in an American military operation earlier this year.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on X the strike took place earlier this week on a Tren de Aragua compound in Venezuela.
Venezuela’s communications ministry confirmed in a statement that Guerrero Flores was killed in a “combined operation” between U.S. forces and Venezuelan security services to target organized crime in the country’s Bolívar state.
Mr. Trump’s social media post included a video that showed a projectile hitting a building, causing it to erupt in flames.
“Tren de Aragua terrorists no longer have safe haven in Venezuela or anywhere else and, under my leadership, we will find these vicious murderers and drugs lords anytime, anyplace, and send them to the depths of hell where they belong,” he wrote.

In a statement on the strikes, U.S. Southern Command described Guerrero Flores, 43, as a “wanted fugitive.” He was indicted late last year in New York federal court on charges that included racketeering, conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists and cocaine conspiracy. The State Department offered up to $5 million for information leading to his capture.
Also known as “The Unspeakable” or “The Big Eyebrow,” Guerrero Flores ran Tren de Aragua for more than a decade, helping to grow it from a Venezuelan prison gang to a transnational organization with a presence throughout the Americas, including in the United States, federal prosecutors say. The indictment accused him of leading a criminal enterprise that trafficked drugs and people, extorted local populations and committed acts of violence.

Prosecutors allege that Guerrero Flores initially operated Tren de Aragua out of Tocorón Prison, directing gang members on the outside and collecting a fee from their activities. CBS News’ partner network, BBC News, reported that Guerrero Flores was in and out of Tocorón Prison for years: He escaped in 2012 and was rearrested a year later. He was sentenced to a 17-year prison term in 2018, but escaped again in 2023, remaining at large after that.
Guerrero Flores lived “like a king” during part of his time in prison, BBC News reported. He occupied an entire floor monitored by bodyguards, and the prison had a swimming pool, a zoo and a nightclub. Last year’s indictment alleged the Venezuelan government allowed him to “control the day-to-day operations of the prison.”
The apparent collaboration between the American and Venezuelan governments to kill Guerrero Flores came five months after the U.S. military removed Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro from power in a daring nighttime raid.
Maduro was flown to New York, where federal prosecutors accused him of scheming to import cocaine into the United States, in part by allegedly partnering with Tren de Aragua and other cartels. The indictment against Maduro also charged Guerrero Flores as a co-conspirator. Maduro has pleaded not guilty.
Since then, Venezuela has been led by Maduro’s former deputy, Delcy Rodriguez. The Trump administration has sought to work with Rodriguez’s government, lifting sanctions on her and pushing to collaborate on oil extraction.
Tren de Aragua has been in Mr. Trump’s crosshairs since he returned to the White House last year. He won a second term after frequently highlighting the gang’s violent presence in the United States — and, critics allege, exaggerating their power within some American communities — on the campaign trail in 2024. Mr. Trump argued the gang was fueled by a massive influx of Venezuelan nationals who traveled to the U.S.-Mexico border during the Biden administration, amid political and economic turmoil in Maduro’s Venezuela.
Early last year, the Trump administration designated Tren de Aragua and other Latin American gangs as foreign terrorist organizations. The administration later cited those designations in its legal justification for striking dozens of alleged drug-carrying boats in the Caribbean and the Eastern Pacific last fall, arguing the U.S. is engaged in an “armed conflict” with the groups. Some of those boats were allegedly operated by Tren de Aragua.
The administration also invoked the wartime Alien Enemies Act of 1798 on Tren de Aragua in March 2025, accusing the group of working with the Maduro government to perpetrate an “invasion” of the United States. It drew controversy for using that law to summarily deport hundreds of Venezuelan men, many of whom were sent to a maximum-security prison in El Salvador. Some of the deportees denied that they were gang members, and some judges found the men were denied due process.
An assessment by the National Intelligence Council last year found the Venezuelan government does not direct Tren de Aragua, despite the Trump administration’s claims. In an interview on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said of the assessment: “They’re wrong.”
