In a decisive move against international drug trafficking, U.S. War Secretary Pete Hegseth revealed on Monday that two additional airstrikes were executed against vessels suspected of smuggling narcotics in international waters. The operation, authorized by President Trump, targeted two ships linked to Designated Terrorist Organizations, both of which were reportedly transporting illegal drugs along a known trafficking route in the Eastern Pacific. According to Hegseth, the strikes resulted in the deaths of six individuals—three male narco-terrorists aboard each vessel. No U.S. personnel were harmed during the operation. Hegseth emphasized that these actions are part of the administration’s broader strategy to safeguard the homeland and eliminate cartel terrorists who pose a threat to national security and public safety. The strikes underscore the U.S. government’s commitment to combating transnational crime and protecting its citizens from the dangers of drug trafficking.
