A U.S. strike in the Caribbean killed two, injured a fisherman, and sparked debate over targeting drug routes.
A 41-year-old Ecuadorian fisherman, Andrés Fernando Tufiño Chila, survived a U.S. military strike in the Caribbean, which President Trump said targeted a drug-carrying submarine.
Two others died.
Tufiño Chila, who has a prior U.S. drug conviction, was returned to Ecuador, where authorities say there is no evidence he committed a crime.
His family denies any involvement in drug trafficking, calling him a struggling father trying to support six children.
The incident highlights how impoverished fishermen in Ecuador—where about 70% of global cocaine passes through—often turn to smuggling for high pay.
The U.S. has conducted at least eight military strikes since September, killing at least 34 people, mostly fishermen, while critics note most U.S. overdose deaths involve fentanyl smuggled by land, not cocaine from sea routes.
