"Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Caribbean and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations," it said. "Four male narco-terrorists were killed during this action. No U.S. military forces were harmed," SOUTHCOM added.
The strike comes as SOUTHCOM warned it was "applying total systemic friction on the cartels," signaling an escalation in U.S. military efforts to disrupt narcotics trafficking networks operating across key maritime corridors.
