Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced another U.S. military strike against an alleged drug-trafficking boat in the Eastern Pacific on Tuesday, killing two “narco-terrorists.”
Hegseth said U.S. forces struck a vessel operated by a designated terrorist organization, and the boat was operating in international waters.
It is unclear which terrorist group the Defense secretary is referring to. However, Secretary of State Marco Rubio is slated to brief the “Gang of 12” tomorrow on ongoing strikes against alleged narco-terrorists in the Caribbean.
“We will find and terminate EVERY vessel with the intention of trafficking drugs to America to poison our citizens,” Hegseth said in a post on social platform X.The Pentagon chief said that no U.S. service members were injured in the operation and that the boat was operating along a “known narco-trafficking route.”
