Top Secret American Black Ops Ship Spotted In Hot Zone As War Fears Skyrocket: DETAILS
A secret ghost ship appears to be in striking distance of Venezuela as tensions and war fears skyrocket
It appears the United States' highly secretive ghost ship has arrived in the region near Venezuela as war fears mount.
Tensions are incredibly high right now between the United States and the regime of Nicolás Maduro in Caracas.
The United States government has flooded the Caribbean with military assets, built up an armada near Venezuela, blown up drug boats leaving Venezuela and has a $50 million bounty on Maduro's head.
All signs point to something serious going down, and another piece of the puzzle now appears to have been added.

United States black ops ship appears to be spotted in Caribbean near Venezuela.
The popular OSINT X account @MT_Anderson shared satellite imagery a few days ago that appeared to show the ghost vessel MV Ocean Trader spearing near St. Kitts in the Caribbean.
To make the situation even more interesting, a post appeared on Reddit Tuesday that showed the ship near the U.S. Virgin Islands. Former CIA agent and popular podcaster Mike Baker also confirmed that it's been spotted in the region.
The spotting comes at the same time The New York Times reported that Special Operations forces have quietly been spun up and sent to the region.
There are next to zero official details known about the MV Ocean Trader. The War Zone reported the ship officially is operated by the Military Sealift Command, but technically speaking, it doesn't officially exist as part of the Navy. Its role is believed to operate off the books to support JSOC activity. Believe it or not, JSOC has plenty of assets at its disposal that don't exist on paper or owned by shell companies, so they can't be traced back to the American government.
The War Zone reported the ship can hold at least 200 people at a time, has secure communications systems and can support any helicopter platform necessary.
That means JSOC operators can launch operations directly from the ship while keeping an extremely low profile, and potentially perfectly blend in with commercial ships.
It's also a pretty safe bet the ship has more than enough capabilities to also launch water operations with a variety of different small boats.

You don't need a vessel like the MV Ocean Trader to hit drug boats. You need a vessel like the MV Ocean Trader to do stuff the public isn't likely to hear about when it happens.
It's a black ops ghost ship, which is also insanely cool. It goes to show just how deep the United States' toolbox is when it comes time to start smacking targets.
