Machado escapes Venezuela to accept Nobel Prize
María Corina Machado is a brave leader from Venezuela.
She had a travel ban for 10 years, but she wanted to go to Norway to get her Nobel Peace Prize.
She couldn't travel normally, so she had to escape secretly.
A group called Grey Bull Rescue helped her.
They met her in a boat in the middle of the night and took her to safety.
It was a dangerous trip, but she made it.
She is now safe and grateful for the help.
The rescue team is very experienced and has helped many people before.
María Corina Machado escaped Venezuela to accept her Nobel Peace Prize in Norway.
She defied a decade-long travel ban and spent almost a year in hiding.
Grey Bull Rescue, led by Bryan Stern, helped her escape via a high-risk boat journey.
The operation, named 'Operation: GOLDEN DYNAMITE,' lasted nearly 16 hours and was funded by anonymous donors.
Machado boarded a plane to Norway from Curacao after the rescue.
