    U.S. Forces SINKS Another Narco Vessel in Caribbean | 3 Killed

    The U.S. has carried out another lethal maritime strike in the Caribbean, sinking a vessel alleged to be linked to narcotics trafficking networks. According to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, three individuals were killed in the operation, bringing the reported death toll from recent maritime interdictions to nearly 70. The U.S. has now destroyed at least 18 vessels across the Caribbean and Pacific theaters in a rapidly expanding military campaign. However, growing concerns are being raised by legal experts and human rights analysts who argue these strikes may be occurring without transparent evidence, judicial oversight or formal combat classification.
