On Sunday, the American military announced that it had killed three men in an attack on a boat in the Pacific Ocean, which it considered involved in drug trafficking operations. This attack is part of a broader campaign that has led to the deaths of at least 185 people in recent months, according to a report by Agence France-Presse. The military released a video showing the boat moving rapidly before it exploded. Although the U.S. claims that these boats are operated by terrorist organizations and are on known drug trafficking routes, the Trump administration has not presented conclusive evidence. Legal experts and human rights organizations warn that these attacks could constitute extrajudicial executions, targeting civilians who do not pose an immediate threat. The attacks began last year, in the context of increased American military presence in the region, and preceded the arrest of former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, accused of drug trafficking. Officials stated that no American soldiers were injured in the operation.
