U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has announced another successful airstrike was carried out against a drug trafficking boat near Venezuela.
According to Hegseth, four narco-terrorists were killed in the airstrike, which occurred in international waters in the USSOUTHCOM operation region.
Hegseth said in a post on X, which included a video of the airstrike, that, "Our intelligence, without a doubt, confirmed that this vessel was trafficking narcotics, the people onboard were narco-terrorists, and they were operating on a known narco-trafficking transit route."
He also confirmed that no U.S. forces were harmed and that the attack was ordered directly by President Donald Trump.
