US strike on an alleged drug boat kills 1, leaves 2 survivors in the eastern Pacific Ocean
The U.S. military attacked an alleged drug-smuggling boat in the eastern Pacific Ocean, killing one person and leaving two survivors. This strike is part of the Trump administration's campaign against 'narcoterrorists' in Latin America, which has resulted in at least 208 deaths since September 2026. Critics question the legality and effectiveness of the strikes, as the military did not provide evidence the vessel was carrying drugs, and follow-up attacks have raised legal concerns.
