CARACAS, Venezuela
Venezuela's acting president has said the US seizure of Nicolas Maduro had "Zionist undertones".
Speaking in a televised address on Saturday, Delcy Rodriguez said: "Governments around the world are shocked that the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela has become the victim and target of an attack of this nature, which undoubtedly has Zionist undertones."
She added: "The extremists who have promoted armed aggression against our country - history and justice will make them pay."
US special forces seized Venezuela's now-ousted President Nicolas Maduro from the capital, Caracas, early on Saturday, as American fighter jets bombed key military installations and bases across the country.
Rodriguez, who served as Maduro's vice-president, has been decreed by the Supreme Court to lead the country on an interim basis.
