Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth announced Friday a new strike in the Caribbean off Venezuela’s coast against an alleged narco-boat, leaving 4 dead. “Four narcoterrorist men aboard the vessel were killed in the strike,” he added. “The strike took place in international waters just off Venezuela’s coast while the vessel was carrying substantial quantities of narcotics bound for the United States to poison our people,” the statement said. Washington has accused Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his government of leading a vast drug-trafficking operation to the United States. Trump, for his part, said this week that alleged high-seas drug trafficking was almost nonexistent after the previous strikes.
