The U.S. military carried out its third strike in days against suspected narco-terrorist targets in the Eastern Pacific, killing three men aboard an alleged drug-trafficking vessel in a lethal operation, according to U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM).
The lethal kinetic strike targeted a vessel operated by what SOUTHCOM called Designated Terrorist Organizations, though it did not immediately provide additional details about the identities of those killed or the specific groups involved.
"Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operation," SOUTHCOM said in a statement on X.

The identity of those killed were terrorist and members of a terrorist organization.
One additional detail about the terrorist, they are now dead.

Might as well be. That's where the action is, but if you are only zapping a fishing boat every few weeks you ain't doing shite.
Oh, looks we got a 25-30 ft boat last night , that's on top of the 2 we got a few weeks ago, etc.
Cartel guys: That's a cost of doing business.....you didn't get the other 25 boats that diverted or our container shipments on freighters underwritten by Naboa in Ecuador.

Ehhhh, when you consider the bulk of the smuggling action is in the Eastern Pacific a speed boat every now and then ain't shite.

One fricking coastal freighter every few months ain't shite on that route. If you go into that area you had better sink more than a few boats every now and then

War department ought to widely disperse these videos into coastal Iran to illustrate how small mine laying boats will be handled in the straits of hormuz
