US military kills three people in latest Caribbean boat strike – SUCH TV

US forces killed three men whom ​the military described as ‌illicit drug smugglers in a strike on a boat in ​the Caribbean, US Southern ​Command said on Sunday.

Southern Command ⁠posted what it said ​was a video of the ​strike on the social media platform X, showing an explosion of a ​small boat travelling on ​open water.

The boat was travelling on “known ‌narco-trafficking ⁠routes in the Caribbean,” Southern Command said.

The US military has so far killed 157 ​alleged ​members ⁠or affiliates of drug organisations in 45 ​strikes against drug trafficking ​vessels ⁠in the Western Hemisphere, a senior US defence official said ⁠last ​month.
