The ‘Venezuelan drug boat’ that the US coast guard destroyed last week had reportedly turned around and was headed for shore before the strike began. The people onboard the vessel had apparently spotted a military aircraft stalking it, the New York Times reported citing unnamed American officials.The boat was hit several times until there was no movement on board, The Times report quoted a person briefed on the incident as saying. The strike in the Caribbean killed 11 people aboard the vessel, who US officials said were members of the Tren de Aragua criminal gang. The US president has said that the attack took place in international waters and that the vessel was transporting drugs “heading to the United States.”However, the new details are likely to intensify scrutiny of the Trump administration’s claim that destroying the vessel rather than attempting to interdict it was justifiedThe US administration officials have argued that the vessel presented an “imminent threat” that necessitated the use of lethal military force. The attack on the Venezuelan boat was US’ first publicly acknowledged airstrike in Central or South America since the US invasion of Panama in 1989. n18oc_world n18oc_crux0:00 INTRODUCTION2:48 US OPERATION AIMED TO DISMANTLE IRAN’S NARCO NETWORKS?4:42 MODURO’S BID TO “REMAP CHAVISTA POWER”
