Venezuela has reportedly shipped crude oil to Israel for the first time in years, a major milestone that comes as the country\u2019s oil exports reopen following the capture of President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro. The shipment is headed to Israel\u2019s Bazan Group refinery \u2014 marking the first direct oil delivery since around 2020 and signaling a potential shift in both Venezuela\u2019s energy strategy and its international economic ties. Experts say this development reflects a broader reopening of Venezuelan markets under new oversight, with export flows now reaching buyers in India, Spain, the U.S., and now Israel.
