The U.S. military<\/a> carried out a lethal strike on a suspected drug-trafficking vessel in the Eastern Pacific on Friday, killing two suspected narco-terrorists, according to U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM).<\/p>\n

“On April 24, at the direction of #SOUTHCOM\u00a0commander Gen. Francis L. Donovan, Joint Task Force Southern Spear<\/a> conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by Designated Terrorist Organizations,” SOUTHCOM said in a post on X.<\/p>\n

“Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations,” the post continued. “Two male narco-terrorists were killed during this action.”No U.S. military forces were harmed.”<\/p>\n

SOUTHCOM did not immediately provide additional details about the identities of those killed or the specific groups involved.<\/p>\n

The U.S. military has carried out numerous strikes in recent months<\/a> on suspected drug-smuggling vessels as part of a broader campaign to dismantle cartel-linked trafficking operations.<\/p>\n

The strike comes less than a week after SOUTHCOM said it conducted a similar operation<\/a> in the Caribbean, killing three suspected narco-terrorists.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, the military struck a suspected drug-trafficking vessel in the Eastern Pacific, killing four alleged narco-terrorists<\/a>, SOUTHCOM said.<\/p>\n

SOUTHCOM is responsible for military operations in Central and South America<\/a> and the Caribbean, including counter-narcotics missions aimed at disrupting drug trafficking networks that threaten U.S. interests.<\/p>\n

The Eastern Pacific remains a key corridor for narcotics trafficking, with cartels often using small, fast-moving vessels to transport drugs toward the U.S. and Central America.<\/p>\n
