Ammon News - Venezuelan Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino López announced a deployment of military forces across the country in a video posted to social media early Saturday, after the U.S. military conducted strikes on the country.

The defense minister called for a united front of resistance in the face of "the worst aggression" ever against Venezuela. He said all armed forces would be deployed following "Maduro's orders" — but made no mention of Maduro's reported capture.

"They've attacked us but they will not subdue us," he said.

He called for calm and unity, and warned against anarchy and disorder, cautioning: "let's not succumb to the panic the enemy seeks to instill."
