"With the latest attack, a total of 168 people have been killed. This murder spree is unconscionable and illegal, said Amnesty International USA in a post on social media."
"Applying total systemic friction on the cartels, the command said, referring to the strikes on vessels on known narco-trafficking routes."
"The fate of the survivor is unknown, following the strikes that killed five people, while one person survived."
The US military's boat strike campaign has led to a total of 168 fatalities, with the latest attack occurring in the eastern Pacific Ocean. U.S. Southern Command reported two strikes on vessels allegedly involved in narco-trafficking, resulting in five deaths and one survivor. The operation has faced widespread criticism for lacking a legal framework and being deemed illegal. Amnesty International condemned the strikes as a 'murder spree,' and families of victims have initiated a wrongful death lawsuit against the military.
