[US Military Claims to Have Attacked "Drug Smuggling Ship" in the Caribbean, Killing 3] The US Southern Command announced on social media on the 13th that it had carried out a "lethal strike" on a "drug trafficking ship" in the Caribbean Sea that day, killing three people on board. The Southern Command stated on social media that, under the order of General Francis Donovan, Commander of the US Southern Command, the "Southern Spear" Joint Task Force carried out a "lethal strike" on a vessel operated by an "identified terrorist organization," killing three "drug terrorists" on board. Since early September of last year, the US military has conducted multiple strikes against what it claims to be "drug trafficking ships" in the Caribbean Sea and the Eastern Pacific, and announced the launch of "Southern Spear" military operation on November 13th of last year. However, the US government has not released any evidence to prove that its targets were involved in drug trafficking. (Xinhua)
