AGUADILLA, Puerto Rico (WSVN) — The U.S is beefing up its military presence in the Caribbean as tensions rise with Venezuela.
General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper drones were spotted over the weekend near an airport in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico.
The remotely piloted aircraft are equipped for long-range intelligence and surveillance missions, and are reportedly armed with missiles.
The continued buildup comes as President Donald Trump ordered a blockade of all sanctioned oil tankers entering or leaving Venezuela.
