Washington [US], May 7: The US military has once again attacked a suspected drug-smuggling boat in the eastern Pacific Ocean, killing three men in an operation on Tuesday, the regional command posted online. "Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations," the US Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) wrote on social media platform X.
The administration of US President Donald Trump has been targeting boats in the Caribbean and the eastern Pacific since September, saying the operations are aimed at curbing international drug trafficking. (DPA)
