Episode Details

The U.S. military launched another deadly boat strike in the eastern Pacific, killing two and wounding six aboard a vessel suspected of drug smuggling — part of a relentless campaign since September that’s now claimed over 210 lives in more than 60 operations. While officials cite known trafficking routes, no concrete evidence was provided that this specific boat carried drugs. A fiery video of the strike has fueled criticism, especially as fentanyl’s main route into the U.S. is overland, not by sea. Lawmakers demand unedited footage after reports of a second strike on survivors — a move the White House calls a defensive necessity, though legal experts say it may violate international law. The Pentagon’s inspector general is now investigating whether proper targeting procedures were followed.
