The US military has reported striking five boats the Trump administration says were smuggling drugs over two days, killing a total of eight people while others jumped overboard and may have survived. US Southern Command did not reveal where the attacks on Tuesday and Wednesday occurred. A video of Tuesday’s attack posted by Southern Command on social media shows three boats traveling in a close formation, which is unusual, and the military said they were in a convoy along known narco-trafficking routes and „had transferred narcotics between the three vessels prior to the strikes.
