A Pentagon official said that the US military conducted another strike on an alleged drug-trafficking boat on Monday, targeting a vessel in the Caribbean Sea and killing four people on board. Since September, US forces have destroyed at least 21 vessels in 20 strikes in international waters, killing at least 80 people. The Trump administration says the operations — the details of which remain sparse — are part of an anti-drug offensive. Meanwhile, Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth announced Operation Southern Spear, saying it would target "narco-terrorists" and shield "our homeland from the drugs that are killing our people."
