The U.S. military said on Friday it struck a vessel in the Eastern Pacific, killing two people and leaving one survivor. It marked the latest such attack that rights groups label as “extrajudicial killings” and which Washington describes as targeting “narco-terrorists.” Here are some details: * The U.S. Southern Command said on X that two males were killed in the strike while one person survived. * The U.S. Coast Guard was notified for search and rescue operations, the Southern Command said. * A U.S. official cited by the New York Times said the Mexican Navy was in charge of the search for the survivor. * There have rarely been survivors of the U.S. strikes. * U.S. forces have attacked multiple boats in the Eastern Pacific in recent weeks through deadly strikes. * The U.S. military’s strikes on such vessels have killed more than 190 people since September. * President Donald Trump’s administration says the vessels were transporting narcotics
