War Secretary Pete Hegseth says U.S. will keep striking narco-terror networks after 15th maritime hit as President Trump defends expanded campaign.
Bradford Betz is a Fox News Digital breaking reporter covering crime, political issues, and much more.
"Today, the Department of War carried out a lethal kinetic strike on another narco-trafficking vessel operated by a Designated Terrorist Organization (DTO) in the Caribbean," Hegseth wrote on X.
He continued: "This vessel—like EVERY OTHER—was known by our intelligence to be involved in illicit narcotics smuggling, was transiting along a known narco-trafficking route, and carrying narcotics."
