Trump's Maritime Strikes Kill Three Amid Cartel Campaign

USA military forces killed three people on a suspected drug-trafficking vessel in the Caribbean on Friday during an operation led by General Francis L. Donovan.Since Donald Trump initiated Operation Southern Spear in September 2025, at least 133 individuals have died under a classified DOJ policy that bypasses judicial review.While Pete Hegseth defends the strategy, legal experts and United Nations representatives have condemned the strikes as extrajudicial executions following the capture of Nicolas Maduro.
