The United States military conducted a strike against an alleged drug-smuggling vessel in the eastern Pacific Ocean on Sunday. The operation, which targeted a boat operating along established narco-trafficking routes, resulted in the deaths of two individuals. This incident marks the first known U.S. strike of this nature in more than two months.
U.S. Southern Command confirmed the military action early Monday. While this specific event is the first in several weeks, historical data indicates that U.S. strikes in the Eastern Pacific and Caribbean regions have resulted in more than 200 deaths over an unspecified period.
