U.S. military forces have stuck another alleged drug smuggling boat in the Caribbean, destroying the vessel and killing all six aboard — as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced he’s sent a massive aircraft carrier to the region.
Hegseth announced the boat strike in a social media post claiming his department had carried out what he called a “lethal kinetic strike” on the vessel, which he claimed had been operated by members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.
