US Strike Kills Three in Caribbean

The strike, approved by General Francis L. Donovan, brings the total death toll of the Trump administration's maritime campaign to at least 181 since September.

Critics have slammed the operations, arguing they constitute a violation of international law and lack proper oversight.

The military maintains that the vessels were ferrying illicit narcotics along established smuggling routes.

The frequency of these strikes has intensified over the past week as the administration ramps up its global security efforts.
