Donald Trump has expanded the anti-drug campaign into direct naval strikes in the Eastern Pacific and Caribbean, actions the Navy says have killed at least 87 people, destroyed 23 boats and targeted crews tied to Tren de Aragua and the ELN.Defense Secretary Peter Hegseth defended the operations as armed conflict with drug cartels and backed continued strikes even as congressional briefings and video prompted demands for more transparency after incidents involving survivors.Admiral Frank Bradley said he approved a follow-up strike after consulting military lawyers, a family including Alejandro Carranza filed a complaint with the IACHR, and a Supreme Court ruling granting broad immunity to Trump complicates prospects for legal accountability.
