US Military Says Four Killed in Strike on Suspected Drug-Smuggling Boat

The US military said it struck a boat suspected of being used to smuggle drugs in the Caribbean, killing four people.

The attack was part of an ongoing campaign by President Donald Trump’s administration against people it describes as drug traffickers in Latin America.

The administration has been conducting the campaign for a year. The latest strike targeted a vessel the military linked to suspected narcotics trafficking.

The military described those killed as “narco-terrorists.” The information provided did not identify them or specify what evidence supported the suspected drug-smuggling activity.
