US strike on an alleged drug boat kills 2, leaves 6 survivors, in the eastern Pacific Ocean

The U.S. military conducted a strike against an alleged drug-smuggling boat in the eastern Pacific Ocean, killing two people and leaving six survivors. The attack is part of a campaign since September targeting 'narcoterrorists,' with over 60 strikes and 210 deaths reported, though evidence of drug trafficking was not provided. A follow-up strike killed two initial survivors, which the White House called self-defense, but critics questioned its legality.
