US military kills three in another strike on Caribbean vessel 

United States Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says American troops have carried out another strike on a ship in the Caribbean, killing at least three men aboard the vessel.

In a post on X late on Saturday, Hegseth said the attack was carried out on the orders of US President Donald Trump and targeted a vessel that “was known by our intelligence to be involved in illicit narcotics smuggling”.

He said no US forces were harmed in the strike.
