Growing scrutiny surrounds U.S. military operations targeting suspected drug boats, notably following a reported second strike that allegedly killed survivors of an initial attack. Lawmakers from both parties, including Sen. Mark Kelly and Sen. Tim Kaine, have voiced strong objections, suggesting that the follow-up strike may constitute a war crime. Legal experts have expressed alarm, accusing military officials, including Pete Hegseth, of ordering unlawful actions that contravene international law. While Trump has distanced himself from the decisions, claiming he would not have approved additional strikes, investigations by congressional committees are underway to determine accountability. Reports indicate deep divisions within the government, with significant pressure on the Pentagon to provide a full accounting of these military actions. As the situation evolves, discussions around U.S. military policies in the Caribbean continue to intensify.
