US President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday that Washington had carried out a strike in the southern Caribbean against a drug-carrying vessel, operated by the Tren de Aragua gang, which departed from Venezuela.
In a post on his own social media platform, Truth Social, Trump noted that 11 people “positively identified Tren de Aragua narcoterrorists” were killed in a kinetic strike in what is a rare US military operation in the Americas.
