U.S. military forces launched a targeted strike against a suspected drug-trafficking vessel in the Eastern Pacific, resulting in the deaths of two alleged narco-terrorists. The strike was part of Operation Southern Spear, directed by the U.S. Southern Command, which tracked the boat along a known international smuggling route. Following the attack, the U.S. Coast Guard initiated a search and rescue mission to locate six surviving crew members in the water. Military officials confirmed that the targeted boat belonged to a designated terrorist organization and reported no casualties among U.S. personnel.
