The US military struck a vessel in the eastern Pacific Ocean on May 8, 2026, killing two people and leaving one survivor, according to US Southern Command, which claimed the boat was operated by terrorist organizations engaged in drug trafficking. The strike marks the third attack in May as part of an operation that has killed over 170 people since September, drawing criticism from international legal scholars and human rights groups who call the attacks extrajudicial killings.
