U.S. military strikes a suspected drug vessel in Pacific, killing two, as part of expanded anti-drug efforts.
The U.S. military conducted its eighth strike in 2025 against a suspected drug-smuggling vessel in the Pacific Ocean, resulting in two deaths, according to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
The operation, part of ongoing efforts to disrupt transnational drug trafficking, targeted a vessel believed to be carrying narcotics, though details on its location, origin, or cargo were not released.
The strike marks an expansion of U.S. counter-drug operations into the Pacific, previously focused on the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific.
Officials emphasize the mission’s role in reducing drug flows into the U.S., but concerns persist over civilian safety, legal oversight, and the long-term effectiveness of military force in interdiction efforts.
