In a series of recent military operations, the US military has conducted multiple strikes on alleged drug trafficking vessels in the Eastern Pacific and the Caribbean, resulting in the deaths of several individuals. In the latest strikes, at least two people were reportedly killed in each attack, with some incidents leaving survivors. The Pentagon has characterized these strikes as targeting narco-terrorists, amidst ongoing criticism regarding the lack of public scrutiny over these military actions. Reports indicate that the cumulative death toll from these operations has escalated significantly, drawing attention from various commentators and analysts who question the implications of such military actions on international waters.
