Venezuela - July 14, 2024

This is the moment an Air Force jet chases a drug trafficker plane in a one-sided dogfight in the skies above Venezuela that ended with the two Mexican suspects on the crooks' plane dead.

Footage filmed in the skies above the Latin American country on Saturday, 14th July, shows that the fighter jet chasing the much slower Cessna C402B with the serial number 0347.

The images show the drug traffickers' aircraft trying to escape the fighter jet after it crossed into Venezuelan airspace, but it is no match for the much faster and heavily armed military aircraft.

The burned wreckage was then seen after it crashed into a field in the rural area of El Chaparral in Venezuela's state of Portuguesa.

Domingo Hernandez Larez, the Strategic Operational Commander of the Venezuelan Air Force, said that the drug traffickers plane was registered in the United States.

And the Minister of the Interior, Remigio Ceballos Ichaso, said that the two people on board the aircraft were Mexican citizens who were involved in international drug trafficking.
