The US military says it has struck another boat in the Eastern Pacific Ocean that it alleges was carrying drugs, killing two people on Thursday.
US Southern Command said the vessel was being operated by designated terrorist organisations and travelling on known narco-trafficking routes.
US forces have been targeting vessels they suspect of smuggling narcotics through the Caribbean and eastern Pacific since September. At least 38 lethal strikes have been carried out in that time and 128 people have died.
The Trump administration has justified the operations as part of a non-international armed conflict meant to stem the flow of drugs from Latin America to the US.
The US Southern Command said in a statement on X that no US military forces were harmed in the operation.
