U.S. Military Claims Strike on "Drug Trafficking Boat" in the Eastern Pacific Kills 2
On the 24th local time, the U.S. Southern Command announced that U.S. forces from the "Southern Strike" joint task force conducted a strike against a vessel operated by a "designated terrorist organization" in the Eastern Pacific, killing 2 individuals on board.
The U.S. Southern Command stated that intelligence confirmed the vessel's involvement in "drug trafficking operations." During this operation, 2 male "terrorists" were killed, and there were no casualties on the U.S. side.
Since early September 2025, U.S. forces have conducted multiple strikes against what the U.S. claims to be "drug trafficking vessels" in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific, and on November 13 of that year, they announced the initiation of the "Southern Strike" military operation. However, the U.S. government has not released any evidence to substantiate that its attack targets were involved in drug trafficking. (Reporter: Deng Xuemei)
