Hegseth also reported at the time that the ship was identified by the intelligence services and that “it was traveling along a known drug trafficking route and he was carrying narcotics“.
“Four male narcoterrorists were on board the ship and died,” Hegseth added that day.
With this new attack there are now 16 vessels destroyed by the US in international waters, which the US Government linked to drug trafficking activities since the beginning of the Southern Command’s military campaign that initially focused on the Caribbean, near Venezuelan waters.
Last week, the American President Donald Trumpassured that he does not rule out attacks on ground targets in Venezuela and Colombia, always related to drug trafficking, and added that if these maneuvers are carried out, he will notify Congress.
