The Trinidad Minister of Energy says a technical team sent by Trinidad & Tobago confirmed that the FSO Nabarima is no longer tilting and there is no water ingress into the vessel and its condition is safe, he confirms the tanker is currently being offloaded by PDVSA
#Venezuela
He says the Venezuelans admitted to 2 problems onboard in recent months. There was a failure of the ballast system valves which caused a 7 degree tilt of the vessel, but this has since been repaired.
He also said that there was water ingress on the 4th deck of the engine room which caused catastrophic failure of a number of electrical motors
This is what the engine room flooding looked like at the end of August
He said Trinidad has requested that a specialist team be sent again in 1 months time to verify the condition of the vessel again.

Venezuelan military identification guide. Here’s some identification tips for frequently seen Venezuelan military equipment and how to spot it when it’s being transported. As well as some identifying information on other Venezuelan military vehicles/aircraft.
#Venezuela
First is the S-125 Air Defence system which are commonly moved around.
The below video is an example of what a full S-125 convoy looks like when being transported
Some identification points are the transloaders and the launcher vehicles. The launches vehicles usually travel without any vehicles and are quite recognisable, the transloaders are military trucks with usually 2 missiles on and are accompanied by multiple military trucks.

30 Apr
The first thing to know about April 30 is that it was never meant to happen on that day. The uprising was planned for May 1st, when Guaido had called for protests. They had to move a day early because they were scared that there was a leak of information.
The plan was kept secret from a lot of people to try and ensure no one would leak the plans, not even Guaidos team knew about it. The whole thing was planned by Leopoldo Lopez who was able to contact people such as Maikel Moreno and Cristopher Figuera to plan the uprising.
The original plan involved Maikel Moreno and Vladimir Padrino Lopez, Maikel Moreno however wanted to become president in exchange for removing Maduro.

The Venezuelan navy OPV vessel the GC-23 Naiguata was sunk early yesterday morning after it collided with the Resolute, Passenger ship registered in Portugal. The Resolute continued to sale to Curaçao without rescuing the Venezuelan crew of the sinking vessel.
#Venezuela ImageImageImage
$325 million naval vessel sunk after somehow colliding with the passenger ship so badly that it sunk the ship and yet the Resolute was able to continue on to Curaçao. An expensive loss
It appears that the Venezuelan Navy was trying to board the vessel when it was hit, I expect the passenger ship to also have noticeable damage
