U.S. forces killed three people Thursday when they struck an alleged drug trafficking boat in the Caribbean, bringing the death toll from the Trump administration's anti-narcotics campaign to at least 70.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth released aerial footage showing the boat exploding into flames after the strike. Hegseth said the vessel was operated by a designated terrorist organization.
