'On my Orders, the Secretary of War ordered a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization conducting narcotrafficking in the USSOUTHCOM area of responsibility. Intelligence confirmed the vessel was trafficking illicit narcotics, and was transiting along a known narcotrafficking passage enroute to poison Americans. The strike killed 3 male narcoterrorists aboard the vessel, which was in international waters. According to CNN, this marks the third publicly acknowledged deadly military action against an alleged drug-smuggling vessel in September, as the Trump administration intensifies its campaign against narcotics trafficking networks. Earlier this week, Trump announced a similar strike in international waters near South America, claiming it targeted a boat transporting illegal narcotics from Venezuela.
