US military says it killed two people in another boat strike in eastern Pacific

Dispatch of vessel strike, like most of military’s statements on strikes conducted in area, did not provide evidence

The US military said it killed two people in a strike on a vessel in the eastern Pacific Ocean on Monday, claiming the targets were involved in “narco-trafficking operations”.

The announcement, like most of the military’s statements on the dozens of strikes it has conducted in the eastern Pacific and Caribbean Sea, did not provide evidence to support its claims that the targets were engaged in narco-trafficking.
