A fresh US military strike in the Caribbean has left three people dead after American forces targeted what officials described as a suspected drug trafficking vessel. The operation, carried out by US Southern Command, involved a lethal missile strike that completely destroyed the boat, marking another major escalation in Washington’s expanding military campaign against narcotics routes across Caribbean and Pacific waters. Authorities say the vessel was part of cartel-linked trafficking networks, but no publicly released evidence has confirmed the identities of those killed or the alleged cargo onboard. Footage released by US officials captures the exact moment of impact, showing a massive explosion that obliterated the vessel within seconds. WATCH
