A Joint Task Force Southern Spear team struck a narco-terrorist vessel transiting a well-known Pacific drug corridor, killing four militants with no U.S. casualties, according to a post Wednesday night shared on X by U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM).

Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by a Designated Terrorist Organization.

The strike occurred Wednesday in international waters along a known narco-trafficking route in the Eastern Pacific. Four male narco-terrorists were killed, according to the Department of War.

No U.S. military personnel were harmed. 

The operation was initiated at the direction of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth after intelligence verified the vessel’s mission.
