BREAKING — U.S. President Donald Trump announced that American forces have once again targeted a vessel linked to Venezuelan drug cartels. According to the president, three people identified as narcoterrorists were killed in the strike.

The operation, ordered directly by President Trump, was part of Washington’s ongoing strategy to crack down on international drug trafficking networks. This latest strike follows a similar mission on September 3, when U.S. forces targeted another Venezuelan vessel, resulting in the deaths of 11 individuals tied to cartel operations.

Officials described the strike as a necessary measure to disrupt narcotics smuggling routes believed to be operated with the support of elements inside Venezuela. The White House has emphasized that such actions are crucial to ensuring the safety of Americans and combating the flow of drugs into the United States.

The move underscores rising tensions between Washington and Caracas, as President Trump signals a zero-tolerance approach toward cartels operating beyond U.S. borders.
