US attacks ‘narco-trafficking’ vessel in Caribbean

The US military again attacked a boat carrying suspected drug traffickers in the Caribbean, killing three people.

The ship was operated by “designated terrorist organizations” and was sailing on a known smuggling route, US Southern Command said on channel X.

The armed forces accused the crew of being “narco terrorists” and participating in “drug smuggling operations”.

A video was released showing the boat exploding after the attack.

In recent months, US President Donald Trump has repeatedly ordered attacks on boats in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific, citing efforts to stop cross-border drug smuggling.

Critics say deadly attacks in international waters violate international law.

According to official figures, more than 130 people have been killed so far.
