U.S. forces struck a boat traveling in the Caribbean, killing three people on board, President Donald Trump said in a social media post. It’s the third such attack this month on vessels accused of transporting narcotics by sea.

Writing on his Truth Social app, Trump claimed that the boat was operating in international waters and was “trafficking illicit narcotics” through a “known narcotrafficking passage.”

“On my Orders, the Secretary of War ordered a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization conducting narcotrafficking in the USSOUTHCOM area of responsibility,” Trump wrote.
