The U.S. Army announced that one person was killed in an operation against a boat allegedly involved in drug trafficking in the Eastern Pacific. In a statement from the U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) website, it was noted that an operation was carried out against a boat accused of engaging in drug trafficking activities in the Eastern Pacific.
U.S. MILITARY FORCES WERE NOT HARMED
In the statement, it was claimed that the boat, which was struck in international waters under the orders of U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, was operating for groups defined as "terrorist organizations." The statement reported that one person on the boat was killed during the operation, and it was noted that U.S. military forces were not harmed during the operation.
DISCUSSIONS OF 'EXTRAJUDICIAL KILLINGS' CONTINUE IN THE PUBLIC
Meanwhile, in footage released regarding the operation, the boat is seen catching fire after being struck. The U.S. Army's recent operations against some boats in the Caribbean region and the Pacific Ocean, accused of drug trafficking, and directly targeting the people on board have sparked discussions in the international community about "extrajudicial killings."
