The US Military annihilated a drug boat full of narco-terrorists in the Eastern Pacific on Sunday.
Three drug-traffickers were killed in the kinetic strike.
Sunday’s strike comes after the US Military smoked a drug boat in the Eastern Pacific on Friday.
Full statement from SOUTHCOM:
On April 26, at the direction of #SOUTHCOM commander Gen. Francis L. Donovan, Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by Designated Terrorist Organizations.
Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations.
Three male narco-terrorists were killed during this action.
No U.S. military forces were harmed.

The Pentagon announced Operation Southern Spear last year as the Trump Administration ramped up the war on drugs.
“Led by Joint Task Force Southern Spear and SOUTHCOM, this mission defends our Homeland, removes narco-terrorists from our Hemisphere, and secures our Homeland from the drugs that are killing our people. The Western Hemisphere is America’s neighborhood – and we will protect it,” Hegseth said.
President Trump ordered action — and the Department of War is delivering.

“Our operations in the Southcom region are lawful under both U.S. and international law, with all actions in compliance with the Law of Armed Conflict,” the Pentagon press secretary said.
These actions have also been approved by the best military and civilian lawyers up and down the chain of command,” Pentagon Press Secretary Kingsley Wilson said last year.
The US military has destroyed at nearly 60 drug boats in the Eastern Pacific and Caribbean since September.
Last month, US Southern Command announced that the US conducted a military strike on a narco-terrorist network in Ecuador.
