US President Donald Trump on Monday said that American forces carried out a strike on what he described as a Venezuelan drug cartel vessel bound for the United States, the second such operation in recent weeks.

Trump said three men were killed in the strike, which he claimed took place in international waters, though he provided no independent evidence that the vessel was carrying narcotics.

“This morning, on my Orders, US Military Forces conducted a SECOND Kinetic Strike against positively identified, extraordinarily violent drug trafficking cartels and narcoterrorists in the SOUTHCOM area of responsibility," Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.
