Venezuela's interim president Delcy Rodríguez announced she has replaced all senior military commanders in the latest personnel changes following the ouster of Nicolás Maduro.

Rodríguez made the announcement via social media, one day after dismissing the country's long-serving defense minister who had maintained close ties to Maduro. The defense minister has been replaced by a former intelligence chief.

The military leadership changes represent part of broader personnel shifts occurring since Maduro was removed from power with U.S. involvement. The extent and nature of the U.S. role in Maduro's ouster was not specified in available reporting.

The replacement of military commanders typically signals an attempt by new leadership to consolidate control over the armed forces, which play a crucial role in Venezuelan politics. Military loyalty has historically been a key factor in determining political stability in the country.

Rodríguez's announcement comes as Venezuela continues to experience ongoing political upheaval. The timing and scope of the military personnel changes suggest efforts to establish new command structures within the country's defense apparatus.
