Another US strike on an alleged drug boat kills 3 in the eastern Pacific Ocean

The U.S. military conducted a strike on an alleged drug boat in the eastern Pacific Ocean, killing three people and raising the total death toll from such attacks to over 200. The strike, part of a campaign against narco-trafficking operations, was announced by U.S. Southern Command without providing evidence of the vessel's activities. The attack occurred amid a Trump administration declaration of armed conflict with Latin American drug cartels.
