The US military has killed three people in its latest airstrike in the Caribbean as it continues what it said is its war on "narcoterrorism/narcotrafficking" on November 6.

Posting a video of the strike to X on Thursday night, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said, "As we’ve said before, vessel strikes on narco-terrorists will continue until their the poisoning of the American people stops."

"Today, at the direction of President Trump, the Department of War carried out a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by a Designated Terrorist Organization. The vessel was trafficking narcotics in the Caribbean and was struck in international waters. No U.S. forces were harmed in the strike, and three male narco-terrorists — who were aboard the vessel — were killed."
