负责美国拉美军事行动的美国南方司令部在社交媒体帖子中表示,此次东太平洋的“致命动能打击”目标是“被指定恐怖组织操控的船只”,并造成“3名男性贩毒恐怖分子死亡”。

该帖子附带了一段未分级的空袭视频。

南方司令部称,周二美国在东太平洋对另一艘疑似毒船发动类似空袭,造成4人死亡;周一的空袭则造成2人死亡。

南方司令部报告称,周六针对两艘不同船只的两起空袭造成5人死亡,1名幸存者。美国海岸警卫队已暂停对该幸存者的搜救。

自9月初在东太平洋和加勒比海开展行动以来,周三的空袭使总死亡人数至少达到178人,已有至少53艘船只成为打击目标。

特朗普总统曾表示,美国与拉美贩毒集团处于“武装冲突”状态,并将这些空袭辩解为必要的升级行动,以遏制毒品流入美国以及夺走美国人生命的致命过量吸毒事件。但他的政府几乎没有提供证据支持其“击毙贩毒恐怖分子”的说法。

此次空袭行动比今年1月抓捕时任委内瑞拉总统尼古拉斯·马杜罗的美国突袭行动早了数月。马杜罗被押往纽约面临贩毒指控,目前已提出无罪抗辩。

批评人士质疑这些船只空袭行动的整体合法性以及成效,部分原因是导致许多致命过量吸毒事件的芬太尼通常经陆地从墨西哥走私进入美国,而芬太尼是用从中国和印度进口的化学原料在墨西哥制造的。

3 killed in latest U.S. strike on alleged drug boat in eastern Pacific, Pentagon says

Three people were killed Wednesday in yet another U.S. strike on an alleged drug-carrying boat in the eastern Pacific, the Pentagon reported.

U.S. Southern Command, which oversees U.S. military operations in Latin America, said in a social media post that the “lethal kinetic strike” in the eastern Pacific targeted “a vessel operated by Designated Terrorist Organizations,” killing “three male narco-terrorists.”

An unclassified video of the strike was included with the post.

On Tuesday, a similar U.S. strike against an alleged drug boat in the eastern Pacific killed four people, while a strike Monday killed two people, SOUTHCOM said.

Two strikes Saturday on two separate vessels left five people dead and one survivor, SOUTHCOM reported. The U.S. Coast Guard has suspended the search for the survivor.

Wednesday’s strike brings the death toll to at least 178 since the operations began in the eastern Pacific and the Caribbean in early September. At least 53 vessels have been targeted.

President Trump has said the U.S. is in “armed conflict” with cartels in Latin America and has justified the attacks as a necessary escalation to stem the flow of drugs into the U.S. and fatal overdoses claiming American lives. But his administration has offered little evidence to support its claims of killing “narcoterrorists.”

The strikes began months ahead of the U.S. raid in January that captured then-Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. He was brought to New York to face drug trafficking charges and has pleaded not guilty.

Critics have questioned the overall legality of the boat strikes as well as their effectiveness, in part because the fentanyl behind many fatal overdoses is typically trafficked to the U.S. over land from Mexico, where it is produced with chemicals imported from China and India.
