In a significant escalation of military actions against drug-trafficking organizations, President Donald Trump announced on Friday that U.S. forces executed a lethal strike on a suspected drug-smuggling vessel in international waters.
The operation, which took place within the U.S. Southern Command area covering Central and South America and the Caribbean, resulted in the deaths of three individuals alleged to be involved in narcoterrorism.
The Trump administration has faced skepticism over the lack of detailed intelligence corroborating these strikes, although Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth insists that the U.S. maintains absolute authority for such actions.
