Venezuela's left-wing leader and his wife were captured at their compound and flown to the US, as part of a dramatic overnight special forces operation that also saw strikes on military bases.
Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores have since been charged with weapon and drug offences in New York.
Trump also promised US oil companies would move into the country and warned the US would stage a second attack if needed. Venezuela's Vice-President Delcy Rodríguez said the government was ready "to defend", while the attack has prompted international criticism.
Here is what we know so far.
