US Military Engages Enemy Forces in Caribbean Boat Attack

US Military Conducts Strike in Caribbean Sea, Killing Three People

A US military strike occurred in the Caribbean Sea on Friday, resulting in the deaths of three individuals. The incident is part of a series of air strikes carried out by US forces since September 2025.

According to the US Southern Command (SOUTHCOM), which oversees military operations in Latin America and the Caribbean, the strike was conducted as part of a “lethal kinetic strike” aimed at targeting individuals suspected of drug trafficking. The command did not provide any evidence to support this claim.

The US military has carried out 37 attacks against 39 vessels in the eastern Pacific and Caribbean Sea since September, resulting in the deaths of at least 130 people. This includes an attack that occurred earlier this week, which killed two individuals.

International law and human rights experts have expressed concerns about the use of force by the US military in these incidents. Some have stated that such actions amount to extrajudicial executions, even if those targeted are alleged to be involved in drug trafficking.

The incident is part of a broader pattern of US military activity in the region. Further information on this developing story will be provided as it becomes available.
