Puerto Rico divided over growing US military presence amid Venezuela tensions
US military personnel and equipment have been building up on the island of Puerto Rico.
The Trump administration says it’s part of efforts to fight drug trafficking in the Caribbean.
But the increased military presence has put the US territory at the centre of rising tension with Venezuela.
That’s drawing mixed reactions from residents.
