U.S.-Ecuador Raid Targets Drug-Running Gang

Published 2 weeks, 3 days ago
Description

U.S. special ops and Ecuadorian troops conducted a coastal raid on a Los Choneros compound, suspected of aiding drug runs. This operation is part of a broader strategy to disrupt sea routes used by criminal networks. Los Choneros, now labeled as terrorists, have expanded into a large organization with ties to Mexicos Sinaloa cartel. Unilateral U.S. strikes on drug boats have resulted in over 160 casualties since late 2025. The Trump administration is tightening rules on raids and airstrikes, treating cartels as national security threats. This joint raid indicates a more aggressive approach in the fight against drug cartels.
