According to CCTV news, on October 28, local time, U.S. Secretary of Defense ("Secretary of War") Hegseth announced that at the instruction of President Trump, The U.S. Department of Defense carries out three "fatal strikes" on four ships operated by drug trafficking terrorist groups in the Eastern Pacific¡£

Intelligence shows that these ships transport drugs along established drug trafficking routes. Three air strikes killed a total of 14 drug traffickers and survived one. There were no casualties in the United States. All operations were carried out in international waters.

He pointed out that the rescue efforts for the survivors had been initiated by the U.S. Southern Command and coordinated by the Mexican search and rescue agency.

Earlier this month, the Trump administration submitted a memorandum to Congress stating that the United States and a drug trafficking group identified by the United States as a terrorist organization ¡°are in a non-international armed conflict.¡±

Recently, the United States deployed several warships in the Caribbean waters on the grounds of "combating drug trafficking".

Since September, the Trump administration has claimed to have sunk several so-called "drug trafficking ships" in international waters off Venezuela. Recent reports from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration show that Venezuela is not the main source of drugs flowing into the United States. The Venezuelan government has repeatedly accused the United States of attempting to instigate regime change in Venezuela through military threats and carry out military expansion in Latin America.
