The U.S. military has taken survivors into custody after a Thursday drone strike on an alleged drug-smuggling boat in the Caribbean, according to a report.

Two U.S. officials told The Associated Press the strike was the sixth carried out under the Trump administration as it continues targeting smuggling vessels operated by drug cartels.

One official said the strike, conducted on what is believed to be a semi-submersible or submersible vessel, killed at least one person and left at least two survivors.
