The US Southern Command posted on social media on the 19th that the US military attacked a so-called “drug trafficking ship” in the Caribbean Sea on the same day, causing the death of 4 people on board. The statement said that the US military “Western Hemisphere Joint Task Force” attacked a “speedboat operating on an established drug trafficking route” in the Caribbean, killing 4 “drug terrorists.” Intelligence indicated that the speedboat was “engaged in drug trafficking activities.” Since the beginning of September 2025, the US military has carried out numerous attacks on so-called “drug carriers” alleged by the US side in the Caribbean and the Eastern Pacific, but the US side has never released any evidence that can prove that the target of its attack was involved in drugs.
