The American military announced that it launched a new attack on Sunday against a vessel suspected of drug trafficking in the Caribbean Sea, resulting in the death of three people. This campaign, initiated by the Trump administration, aims to destroy ships involved in drug trafficking in Latin American waters and has led to the deaths of at least 181 people since the beginning of September. Attacks have intensified recently, despite the conflict with Iran, demonstrating the administration's commitment to combating what it calls 'narcoterrorism' in the Western Hemisphere. Although the military has not presented evidence that the attacked vessels were transporting drugs, the attacks coincided with an increase in American military presence in the region. President Trump justified these actions as necessary to stop the flow of drugs to the United States, but critics question the legality of these attacks on vessels.
