The U.S. military said it struck a drug-trafficking vessel in the Eastern Pacific on April 24, killing two people, in the latest action under the Trump administration’s campaign to combat drug smuggling.
U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) said in a post on X that a “lethal kinetic strike” was launched after intelligence confirmed the vessel was moving along known drug-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations.
