President Trump on Monday announced that US forces have conducted another strike against a Venezuelan drug boat with “confirmed narcoterrorists” smuggling illegal narcotics.
“This morning, on my Orders, U.S. Military Forces conducted a SECOND Kinetic Strike against positively identified, extraordinarily violent drug trafficking cartels and narcoterrorists in the SOUTHCOM area of responsibility,” the President said in a statement.
“The Strike resulted in 3 male terrorists killed in action. No U.S. Forces were harmed in this Strike.”
This comes after Trump announced on September 2nd that the United States carried out its first successful strike on a Venezuelan Tren de Aragua boat that was attempting to smuggle drugs into the US. Trump posted footage of the strike and put the world on notice, saying, “Please let this serve as notice to anybody even thinking about bringing drugs into the United States of America. BEWARE!”
One week later, the Department of Homeland Security shared more footage of a Coast Guard vessel shooting down another drug boat that was interdicted en route to US shores. Three interdictions in the same night led to the seizure of nearly 13,000 lbs of cocaine that was headed to a city near you.
President Trump has signaled that he plans to attack the cartels inside of Venezuela on Sunday, amid reports that he has approved options for the targeted strikes on Venezuelan soil.
Trump shared the following footage of the recent strike on Truth Social on Monday afternoon.
