flag U.S. military strikes kill five on a suspected drug vessel, part of expanded campaign against cartels amid policy shift.

flag President Donald Trump's administration has intensified military operations against alleged drug smugglers, conducting a ninth strike overnight that killed three people on a suspected drug-trafficking vessel, following a separate attack that killed two others. flag The Pentagon confirms these actions are part of a broader campaign to disrupt drug flows into the U.S., now expanding to include land-based operations as cartels shift routes. flag The administration frames the effort as a national security priority, citing over 300,000 drug-related deaths in the past year, and asserts legal authority for military action, though details on locations, evidence, and legal basis remain limited. flag The escalation marks a significant shift in U.S. policy, drawing scrutiny over the use of force in drug enforcement.
