<br /><br />The US military killed three men in a strike on a suspected drug vessel in international waters in the Caribbean on Nov. 6, 2025, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said. Hegseth, said in a post on social media website X that the vessel was operated by a 'Designated Terrorist Organization' but provided no further evidence. His post included a 20-second video clip, marked unclassified, of a boat in the water that gets struck by a munition and explodes. The military action was the latest of more than a dozen US strikes since September on vessels near the Venezuelan coast and, more recently, in the eastern Pacific Ocean, that have killed more than 60 people. Reuters was not able to independently verify the location or the date when the video was filmed. <br /><br />SOCIAL MEDIA WEBSITE / SECRETARY OF WAR PETE HEGSETH VIA X
