On January 5, just hours after reports of "Maduro's Arrest," Elon Musk posted a photo on X showing him dining with former U.S. President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania at Mar-a-Lago—signaling an apparent repair of their previously tense relationship.

The country’s overall internet connectivity remained largely normal, however.
