Operation Southern Spear
2025–2026 US military anti-drug trafficking operation
Operation Southern Spear is a United States military and surveillance campaign launched in 2025 by the administration of US president Donald Trump with the declared aims of "detecting, disrupting, and degrading transnational criminal and illicit maritime networks". Some analysts say the operation is a hybridization of the war on terror and the war on drugs. Others have said that removal of Nicolás Maduro from power in Venezuela was an objective of the operation.
