Pacific: A new American strike against alleged drug traffickers results in three deaths

An American military strike in the Pacific against a vessel of alleged drug traffickers has resulted in the deaths of three individuals, continuing a six-month campaign that has killed nearly 150 since September.

On Friday, the U.S. military conducted an airstrike in the Pacific targeting a vessel suspected of being involved in drug trafficking, which led to the death of three people. This incident is part of a broader American military campaign directed at combatting narcotrafficking in the region, which has been ongoing since September of the previous year. The strike was reported by the U.S. Southern Command via X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, highlighting the U.S. government's continued commitment to tackling drug-related crime in the Pacific.
