U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced that some drug traffickers in the Southern Command area have ceased narcotics operations indefinitely following recent military strikes in the Caribbean, which he credited to President Trump as a lifesaving deterrent. Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham praised the actions as necessary to monitor drug cartels. SOUTHCOM confirmed a strike that killed two suspected narco-terrorists engaged in trafficking operations. These military actions are part of the Trump administration’s strategy against narco-terrorism.
