From the Daily Wire:

U.S. forces carried out a tenth strike on a suspected drug boat, killing six Tren de Aragua “narco-terrorists” Thursday night in the Caribbean, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said.

The “lethal kinetic strike” was the first to take place in the dead of night. It comes as the Trump administration ramps up a campaign of pressure against the Venezuelan regime over drug trafficking in the region

“The vessel was known by our intelligence to be involved in illicit narcotics smuggling, was transiting along a known narco-trafficking route, and carrying narcotics,” Hegseth wrote on X of the hit, which took place in international waters.

The Daily Wire notes that Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro has criticized the Trump administration for these attacks, calling them “a military attack on civilians who were not at war and were not militarily threatening any country.” He has also accused the President of seeking a regime change.

President Trump, meanwhile, has placed a $50 million bounty on Maduro. He has also, according to the Daily Wire, signed off on a “covert CIA operation in Venezuela against Maduro,” accusing him of being complicit in Tren de Aragua’s drug trafficking.

As the Trump administration works to keep America safe and ends the flow of drugs across the border, let’s pray for wisdom, strength, and boldness!
