Defence secretary says the strike was carried out on Trump’s orders and targeted ‘narco-terrorists’.
United States Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth says that US troops have carried out another strike on a ship in the Caribbean, killing at least three men on board the vessel.
In a post on X late on Saturday, Hegseth said the attack was carried out on the orders of President Donald Trump and targeted a vessel that “was known by our intelligence to be involved in illicit narcotics smuggling”.
He said “three male narco-terrorists” were on board the vessel during the strike, which was conducted in international waters.
All three were killed, he added.
The attack on Saturday follows another on Wednesday that killed four men and a series of bombings that killed 14 others on Monday.
