The U.S. military conducted a strike against an alleged drug-smuggling boat in the Caribbean Sea on Sunday, resulting in four deaths.
The latest operation elevates the total number of fatalities from U.S. military boat strikes to at least 235 across 70 separate attacks since September 2025.
U.S. Southern Command stated the vessel was targeted along known smuggling routes, though no physical evidence of narcotics was provided in official statements.
