Venezuelans both inside and outside their homeland erupted in celebrations this weekend following the capture of long-time dictator Nicolás Maduro by U.S. forces.

From South Florida to Chile to Madrid, Venezuelans and all from all around the world took to the streets to rejoice after news broke that Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were captured and flown out of Venezuela early Saturday by U.S. forces following coordinated strikes.

Celebrants waved Venezuelan and American flags, banged pots and pans, and popped champagne bottles in a spontaneous display of liberation, according to the New York Post.
