The United States took a big oil ship near Venezuela. President Trump said the ship was very large. The US said the ship was moving oil from Venezuela and Iran, and this was not allowed. The government of Venezuela was very angry and said the US was acting like pirates.

The US said the ship was helping bad groups and was breaking the law. Many people from the US military and police worked together to take the ship. The ship was using a false flag and was not really from Guyana. The US said it will keep the oil from the ship.

Venezuela said the US did something very wrong. The leaders in Venezuela said the US wants to take their oil. The US has more soldiers and ships near Venezuela now. Many people are worried there could be more problems between the two countries.
