House Intelligence Committee ranking member Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT) condemned the United States’s “troubling” strikes on alleged drug boats on Sunday, saying the White House hasn’t shared its “legal justification” for these.

War Secretary Pete Hegseth announced earlier this month that he ordered the U.S. military to carry out its fourth strike against a small boat carrying narcotics off the Venezuelan coast. Colombian President Gustavo Petro said on Wednesday that the latest strike was actually a Colombian boat with citizens from the South American country aboard.
