US Forces Eliminate 3 More Narco-Terrorists in

On Saturday, the United States armed forces took out another suspected drug-smuggling boat, this one in the jap Pacific. Three alleged drug smugglers had been on board, raising the quantity of suspected drug smugglers now inspecting new quarters in Davey Jones’ locker to 82. This was the latest event in what the Department of War is looking Operation Southern Spear.

U.S. forces carried out a deadly strike Saturday on a narcotics vessel operated by a designated terrorist group in the Eastern Pacific, killing three suspected narco-terrorists in worldwide waters, according to U.S. Southern Command.

The strike brings the overall quantity of suspected narco-terrorists killed to 82, with three survivors, in an ongoing U.S. marketing campaign concentrating on drug-smuggling vessels tied to designated terrorist teams.

In a post on X, U.S. Southern Command said intelligence confirmed the vessel hit in Thursday’s strike was smuggling narcotics along a identified trafficking route. The command described the strike as a “lethal kinetic operation” carried out in worldwide waters as half of a broader effort to disrupt transnational legal networks.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth on Thursday announced the official launch of Operation Southern Spear, a new mission concentrating on narco-terror networks across Latin America.

Now there’s a masterpiece of navy understatement, in describing the strike as a “lethal kinetic operation,” when most would have merely said, “blown up.” 

The Navy’s Southern Command counted coup on their official X channel, with newly-declassified video:

The post continues:

Intelligence confirmed that the vessel was concerned in illicit narcotics smuggling, transiting along a identified narco-trafficking route, and carrying narcotics. Three male narco-terrorists aboard the vessel had been killed. The vessel was trafficking narcotics in the Eastern Pacific and was struck in worldwide waters.

In the video, before the boat was detonated, one can plainly make out that the craft was loaded with some type of bulk cargo. While it is inconceivable to know from the video supplied, it is not in contrast to what baled cocaine or containers of some other illicit drug would appear to be.

Removing drug smugglers from the sport board is always price doing.

US Forces Destroy Drug Running Submersible and Take First Drug War Prisoners

The operation started last September and has been concentrating on identified smuggling routes and strategies, many of them originating from Venezuela and being carried out by members of the infamous Tren de Aragua prison gang.

Since early September, strikes across the Eastern Pacific and Caribbean have destroyed dozens of vessels, many tied to Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua gang and Colombia’s Ejército de Liberación Nacional.

The marketing campaign started Sept. 2 with a strike that killed 11 alleged members of Tren de Aragua and continued through October and November with a collection of focused operations that eradicated dozens more across identified trafficking routes.

In these operations, the United States Navy is once more proving that outdated navy truism: There is no drawback that can’t be solved by a appropriate software of high explosives.

Editor’s Note: Thanks to President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s management, the warrior ethos is coming back to America’s navy.
