The United States military reported that it killed two individuals in a strike on a suspected drug vessel in the Eastern Pacific. The military stated that intelligence confirmed the vessel was operating along established narcotics trafficking routes and was involved in illegal operations. This incident is part of a broader campaign targeting suspected drug boats, with reports indicating that at least 119 people have been killed in similar strikes. Recently, families of victims have initiated legal action, filing a wrongful death lawsuit in federal court and challenging the legality of these military operations, which they describe as unlawful and targeting civilian vessels.
