A United States strike in the eastern Pacific hit a suspected drug boat, killing four people. The Pentagon confirmed the operation and released video of the blast. US Southern Command said the vessel belonged to a designated terrorist organisation and was carrying illicit narcotics along a known trafficking route. The strike is part of Operation Southern Spear, which has targeted multiple suspected drug boats in recent months, with more than 80 deaths reported. The latest attack comes as Washington debates a separate September strike involving a second hit on a capsized boat, prompting scrutiny from lawmakers and legal experts. Families of victims have filed complaints, while President Trump continues to frame the campaign as a fight against narco-terrorists. Venezuela has accused the United States of using anti-drug operations as a pretext to target its government.
