The US has struck another vessel off the coast of Venezuela, killing six people, President Donald Trump has said.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the vessel belonged to “narcoterrorists” and that it was “trafficking narcotics.”
This is the fifth strike of its kind by the Trump administration on a boat accused of trafficking drugs on international waters. In total, 27 people have been reported killed, but the US has not provided evidence or details about identities of the vessels.
Some lawyers have accused the US of breaching international law, and neighbouring nations like Colombia and Venezuela have condemned the strikes.
