A top military lawyer raised concerns over the legality of the Trump administration’s strikes on “drug boats” in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific, but was ignored by higher-ups, according to a new report.
The senior judge advocate general (JAG), posted at U.S. Southern Command in Miami, reportedly raised concerns that the strikes against the alleged “narco-terrorists” could amount to extrajudicial killings and legally expose American service members involved in such operations.
