Less than 24 hours after warning he might strike again, President Donald Trump followed through — launching a fresh military assault on a vessel in the Caribbean he claimed was carrying Venezuelan drug traffickers.
Trump writing on Truth Social said that three 'narcoterrorists' from Venezuela were killed this morning.
'On my Orders, U.S. Military Forces conducted a SECOND Kinetic Strike against positively identified, extraordinarily violent drug trafficking cartels and narcoterrorists,' Trump said on his Truth Social.
The president emphasized in his post that the 'narcoterrorists' were operating in international waters while transporting illegal drugs bound for the United States.
He went on to describe the trafficked narcotics as a 'deadly weapon' responsible for poisoning American citizens. He labeled the cartels involved as 'extremely violent' threats to U.S. national security.
