President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that the U.S. military conducted a deadly strike against a boat in the Caribbean Sea, killing 11 people he claimed were members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua. The president said the vessel was carrying drugs from Venezuela to the United States.

The strike happened in international waters in the southern Caribbean, according to Secretary of State Marco Rubio, as per The Post. Trump shared a blurry video on social media showing what appeared to be a small boat exploding, but the footage did not clearly show drugs or prove the identities of those on board.
