US military kills three in a recent strike on a boat in the Caribbean.
The attack raises the death toll from US operations to at least 133 since September.
US officials cite 'narco-terrorists' as targets, but provide little evidence.

The US military has conducted a recent lethal strike on a boat in the Caribbean, leaving three individuals dead. This operation is part of an ongoing anti-narcotics campaign initiated by the Trump administration, which has resulted in at least 133 fatalities from 38 strikes since early September, according to aljazeera, channelnewsasia, scmp, and indiatimes.

The US Southern Command labeled the deceased as "narco-terrorists," justifying the attack as part of a broader campaign against cartels operating out of Venezuela. Despite the claims, US officials have not presented definitive evidence linking the vessels to drug trafficking, raising legal concerns about the strikes, as highlighted by channelnewsasia and scmp.
