Controversial US Interdiction Kills 3 in Caribbean Drug War
US forces have escalated their fight against drug cartels, sparking concerns over the legality of military operations. This latest incident in the Caribbean has left 3 dead.
The United States has once again found itself in the middle of a controversial military operation targeting alleged drug smugglers in the Caribbean. This latest strike, which killed 3 individuals, has reignited the debate over the legality and ethics of America's aggressive approach to combating international drug trafficking organizations.
President Donald Trump has been vocal about his administration's determination to take the fight to the cartels, declaring that the US is effectively in an "armed conflict" with these criminal networks. Since last year, the military campaign has resulted in the deaths of at least 180 people, drawing criticism from human rights groups and some US allies who question the legal justification for such lethal force.
