LOADING ERROR LOADINGNov 16 (Reuters) - The United States conducted another attack on an alleged drug trafficking boat in the eastern Pacific on Saturday, killing three people aboard, the Pentagon said on Sunday. The announcement said the boat was in international waters when it was struck by Joint Task Force Southern Spear. AdvertisementIt was the 21st known attack on drug boats by the U.S. military since early September in what it has called a justified effort to disrupt the flow of narcotics into the United States. U.S. Air Force via APLawmakers in the U.S. Congress, human rights groups and U.S. allies have raised questions about the legality of the attacks. U.S. officials have accused Cartel de los Soles of working with the criminal organization Tren de Aragua to send narcotics to the United States.
